Album:Shaft (Sdtk)

Track:
the final tribute goes to Isaac Hayes. Once again, mere words cannot do justice to a career that progressed from being an in-house songwriter at Stax for the likes of Sam & Dave in the sixties, to his role as "Chef" in South Park, taking in "Hot Buttered Soul", "Black Moses", "Shaft", "Disco Connection" and Scientology. I've chosen a lesser known track from the soundtrack of "Shaft" here.
Isaac Hayes died on 10th August 2008. He was 65 years old

He was truly amazing.
RIP
One of my friends in College was the son of the actor who played Bumpy in the movie. We had a small conga ensemble which another friend would rhyme over. Very nice to hear this again.
