Curtis Mayfield started the Impressions, for god's sake. He helped launch Jerry Butler. "People Get Ready" is better than anything Prince has ever done, from not only a songwriting perspective, but also from a aspect of impact on the game. Nothing Prince has done has affected the music community much, but People Get Ready was one of those songs that helped to totally change music. Also, it sounds as good today as it did 50 fucking years ago. EASSSSSSSILY Curtis Mayfield on this one. Okay I agree that it is Mayfield, but I have a question, How did MJ change music? For the better?That's irrelevant to this discussion, and it's also irrelevant to the MJ/Bruce discussion, because Bruce didn't change music, EITHER.
