Free Music Notes for Shaft: Music From The Soundtrack (1971 Film)
Free Music Review: Great Soul/Jazz Fusion ...
Hit: 4 Stars
I first bought this recording back in the '70's when it was released as a double LP. I was very pleased when I saw it on CD and was even more satisfied when I received it and played it.This is Isaac Hayes' best work as far as I'm concerned.Not only do you get the full version of the "Theme From Shaft" but you also get a good selection of soul/jazz fusion.This recording brought back some fond memories and the remastering makes it all that much more enjoyable ...Free Music Review: Diff of opinion
Hit: 5 Stars
In spite of the fact, that the music beyond the "Theme from Shaft" is being characterized as "mood music", I feel that it is also some of the best "smooth jazz" that you will hear! It is music that has, and will stand the test of time. Listen to "Cafe Regio","No name bar", and "Ellie's love theme". Songs that have been covered by other artist, such as Norman Brown, and Doc Powell. This album is a classic! Perfect for "that mood"!Free Music Review: A steep slide downhill after the first track
Hit: 2 Stars
What a disappointment! After the iconic, slippery-smooth title song, most of the rest of the CD is just middle-of-the-road elevator music. If you're looking for a great blaxploitation soundtrack, get the 25th anniversary edition of Curtis Mayfield's Superfly, or Across 110th Street, with Bobby Womack's brilliant vocal.Free Music Review: time less

i still enjoy the music and the arrangements much.to be perfectly honest there have been maybe between 10-25 good soundtrack cd's since this one.and many of those were by curtis mayfield.and considering how many soundtrack cd's come out daily and what have you that's not many.that's the brillance of mr.hayes.Free Music Review: After the first song, it's jazz heaven!
Hit: 5 Stars
Yes, the title song is dated and annoying, but after that you will not find a better collection of contemporary jazz. It's the kind of jazz that after you hear it, you can remember the melody and humm along to, not the kind of jazz that is more popular, the kind that sounds like a bagful of instruments dropped from a 20-story building. Get this, skip the title song, and be surprised.
