Soul Legacy is a box set of Curtis Mayfield hits. Five years after Mayfield's box set People Get Ready: The Curtis Mayfield Story was released in the United States, the UK came up with this more comprehensive collection. Unlike its predecessor, track list for this set is not in chronological order, instead opting for thematic divisions (see track listing).
