• Track Listing

In a career full of triumphs as a singer, songwriter, musician, producer, actor and soul-music visionary, "Shaft" was the pinnacle for Hayes. The theme shot to #1, the album hit #1 and stayed on the pop charts for well over a year and the sound of it all not only defined blaxploitation, but also helped usher in the sound of the ’70s. It’s still a powerful experience, one that’s best served here, newly remastered on CD or deluxe version featuring the original soundtrack as well as the complete score on 2 CDs. "Theme from Shaft" and the hit "Do Your Thing" join "Ellie’s Love Theme," "No Name Bar," "Soulsville," "Café Regio’s" and the rest of this essential classic! Craft.
