Description: Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions look solemn but stylish on the cover of *The Young Mods' Forgotten Story*, framed by the brick and iron of East Harlem in New York, NY 10029—a neighborhood wrestling with the same questions of pride, struggle, and change that fill the grooves of this 1969 soul landmark. Their sharp suits and calm stares feel like a street-corner council, catching a quiet moment between the civil rights marches and the creeping cynicism of the new decade. Standing where the photo was taken, you can almost hear the album’s mix of sweet harmonies and tough realism echoing off the tenement walls. This is one of the stops in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
