Oh man, I did not need to learn that Curtis Mayfield physically abused his wives/girlfriends... I'd always imagined he'd be different in that regard to Marvin Gaye and James Brown; I guess I was naively basing my opinion on the sort of gentler masculinity he conveys in his music, but of course the two don't necessarily rule out each other.
