You know as a teenager I did love his music but now as I am older ain't nothing can come better than the music from this man and others from the 70s. You know we truly was Bless to experience such talents.
Why does that sound so good even though it is 50 years old? because quality was still important back then. Today's people listen to music mostly on cell phones and cheap headphones. I get ear cancer. I only have records or good tapes myself. Recordings used to be recorded with more effort. today everything has to happen quickly. no matter what the quality is. the main thing is to finish quickly and earn money.
@@jurgen2596 I disagree. There was a lot of garbage back then too. I was there, so I remember. Isaac Hayes was just determined to be one of the better producers...and absolutely the best on the STAX label. There were only a few who elevated to the rare air that he was in. And I still listen to this on my phone and through some very good headphones...
@@jurgen2596 I feel you are correct. Today’s music must have sexy and show things that should be kept behind closed doors. Nothing is left to the imagination.
Remembering the sounds that permeated the neighborhood during the summer in New York. My sister ran a music store and people would just gather outside to listen to this and all things Isaac Hayes. This was the time of the movement in America that had propelled Woodstock. My sister has passed on but little brother still see all the smiling faces that she made possible with the music she played. ❤❤❤
I listened to this so much while pregnant my 2 month old falls asleep to it....May've have conceived him to it...Def one of the craziest most memorable nights EVER!!!....R.I.P. to my love...never got to meet his son!!!
My dad & uncle used to jam this when it first came out and I was about 9 or 10 years young. We loved it back then and played it repeatedly and to this day I still do. One of my all time favorite pieces of music. Thank you Isaac, may you be blessed in heaven for touching so many people.
1:32 ❤❤❤ IT DEFINITELY ISN'T HIP HOP OR DISCO WHICH I CAN'T STAND TO LISTEN TO 💜💚💛🤎🧡♥️💙🤍 I DO HOWEVER YOU LIKE TO LISTEN TO THE SOUL MOTOWN SOUND❤❤❤❤❤❤
This reminds me of growing up in the South on Sunday mornings when my Dad would play this, get to the 18th minute, start it over and intentionally miss church by saying "I missed my favorite part"... which later before he passed away he finally admitted every moment of this song was his favorite part.
Black folks in music nowadays should listen to these masterpeaces that were given to them as legacy and that for some reason got missed somewhere along the years. Putting together a tune like this requieres true talent, effort, knowledge, passion, skills and years of hard work, aspects that I honestly do not see in this music generation.
Isaac Hayes adopted and visited Ghana on numerous occasions. At one of his visits in 1992, he was made an honorary Chief of development in recognition of his love and contributions to Ghana music. He was enstooled in a beautiful Kente cloth as Chief Katey Ocansey I. May his soul rest in perfect peace.
Man this bring me back to my childhood me and my cousin's running through the house and my my sister in the kitchen hot combing my cousin's hair on a Saturday morning Man life was good back then.
Had this album in 1970 when "Shaft"was released. Was living at The Chelsea Hotel in New York. Would leave the hotel every day and step to the music of "Shaft" in my head.
Man, I just drove 50 miles to an ole skool record store to find this album. They didn't have the album but they had it in cassette. I almost broke the thing getting into it . I couldn't wait to hear it again. Me and the 740i BMW was rocking going back to Hampton from Norfolk. I know I lost some hearing but i loved every note of it.
I don't know exactly how old I was when "Black Moses" came out but I was a little boy. the first concert in my life, at the Kiel in St. Louis. I had the fold out album on my wall! Issac Hayes stays with me to this day! "Rockfish"😌
I think it was a guy called Al Jackson. A session drummer out of the stax stable. He was shot before He testify in court about corruption in the Stax label Corporation.
Ike was the master of extended music. Man I cried when he, Curtis Mayfield and James Brown passed. I felt a personal connection to them through their music. Funny how they played in the same era, but their music was uniquely identifiable as theirs. Today I can’t tell Drake from Shake n Bake! Long live real music.
I doubt they asked for another take after that epic session, there's musical entertainment and then there's art. This art.this is soul. This is church. This an experience
I saw The!!! Issac Hayes everytime he came to the Stl. One of the greatest musicians, composers and arrangers in any Era. My wife and I where listening to By The Time I Get To Phoenix. May I say no more.
+Edward Ty...oops, I forgot 2 add that the show opened with six dazzling beauties of varying ethnic origin sitting astraddle six backward facing chairs with which they later danced with & on as Issac continued delivering one of the best performances I've ever witnesses
As a 36 year old man raised in the suburbs of Houston I never heard anything that will ever even come close to this!!! This brings chills and gives me goosebumps...unbelievable song!
i am glad you love what I have been listening to all my life funk unadulterated and wholesome gut wrenching soullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
The instrumental part of this tune is just amazing but the words are just as powerful he is saying live your life to the fullest do your thing don’t let anybody stand in your way
🤌🎶💎😎🙌🙌👏👏💯🎯WOW powerful that, Mr. John!! NEED to hear & grasp that simple truth badly these days~lotsss of testing in life now. You said+reaffirmed it PERFECTLY🌟🙏🙏
I was listening, had this on in the background thinkin bout somethin' else, and realized it had been like 10 minutes, and this man is STILL doin' his thang! I was like "dayum!"
Sing it Black Mose never be another like u..U r the very best 69 yrs old and still listening to this n 2020 Takes me back to old school days . What a party we all had jamming to this one. Never forget u
Takes me back to my youth as a young Black Man - feeling the strength of youth - growing up in apartheid South Africa. And to this very day it resonates and vibrates deep inside of me! I feel young and in touch once more with who I was back then! THANKS for the upload! And a bow for Mister Isaac Hayes, Black Moses Himself! RESPECT! Take Care!
I FINALLY, FINALLY FOUND THE FULL 19 MIN VERSION!!!!! THE STORY I COULD TELL ABOUT THIS SONG!!!!!! I've been looking for a long time!!! And then I thought, what about You Tube???? AND HERE IT IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😜😜😉😊
yes yes yall black moses i grew up wth soul and heart of motown and good old school jammin Isaac Hayes a role model in my life his lyrics and tight sequences make the soul groove
this is one of the most fantastic songs i have ever heard... i was only 4 years old when i fell in love with this soundtrack and used to listen to it all day long...
I was the same ...about 5...played this cassette over and over again. This was so racy at the time would not admit i liked it to friends. This is a other worldly piece if art
we were in Vietnam when heard this hot buttered soul when i come home i think i was in DC he played his organ so hard it blew up had to get another one kept on playing Ike is in love with johns girl by the time i get to phoeinx Soul ville walk on by Hiyper bolic you know what im talking about the Brothers from Vietnam know what im talking about Back to World walking throuh mud up to my knees😉😍🤔
I dropped a needle on the vinyl in 1971 when it first was released. No matter how many times I cue it up it stays fresh. Give it up for the house band. Isaac turned them loose here and they absolutely TEAR IT UP.
There is no body that can sing and write music like Issac Hayes never. Love him dearly ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ rest in peace Issac Hayes never Forgotten never 🕊️🕊️🕊️🙌🕊️🙌🕊️🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
God damn that record is ALIVE!…. It’s got a soul all of its own… That melody & those notes are Sweeter than honey… This is what happens ya’ll when true talented musicians are gathered together & are free to let themselves jam & shine…. Bring back yesteryear’s vibes. Todays musics a load of bunk… Thanks to all those concerned making this track happen and to the uploader… you’ve all got class….
This is Oscar winning music...every cut on a double album release is Oscar-worthy. Did I mention that this album won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, and the album was nominated for Best Original Score...?
boy oh boy, never I have I ever listened to Something like this. Stumble on it on the mainstream (!) radio, 20 minutes of unknown and deli-funkin-licious jam. no words. awesome
i play this often and always loud and crisp . its my way of sharing it to open the minds of those who have yet to experience this gem. i am in my fifties showing off to the youngsters and they always ask who dat? They know of Chef but now they know the real Mr. Hayes.
Bless the person who loaded this. I use to play this everyday when I was learning to play the guitar. I thought about the song waking up this morning after not hearing it for years. I got on TH-cam and found it. The extended version is for real music lovers. I can still hear my mother shouting turn it down! But she was dancing to it while I jammed!
Someone called it INSANE!! I call it INSANITY! This music is so so so COLD!! The arrangement can't be topped! Thank You Mr. Hayes! BLACK MOSES....RIH!!
Mr. Funk and Soul Mr Isaac Hayes! The genius himself! Thank you for ALL your great music you left behind, brings back so many sweet music! They don't make it like that anymore! I am old school and you are definitely part of my collection!!!!!!...
Hayes gave his very best and I'm thankful and eternally grateful for his shared talent and genius that incompassed his voice and instrumental ensemble. This piece encourages me to be my self and embrace those things that cause self to be content and filled with happiness , " do my thing".
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WELCOME TO SOULSVILLE ,EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD-MR ISSAC HAYES AND HIS MANY TALENTED MUSICIANS. A TRUE LEGEND AND GENIUS, I SURE MISS HIM!!! ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES!!!!
I can remember buying the Shaft Soundtrack album,the first time playing "Do Your Thing",I was floored,if you are a musician pro or am,there's something about groovin a long jam session,and also trying to master the cats licks off the album.Computers will never be able to duplicate the spirit of real musician's.Peace
9-2-2021 🎶🎶Thanking God for my love of music 👏🏾👏🏾 I still got 78,45,cd's movies😛😜😍🥰🤑🤑🤑 Great memories, My great gd.children will have them.Sooo many memories 🤗 Enjoy your day 😇🙏🏿💪🏿✌🏿💝🎶🎶🎶🎶
Wow what talents and soul. If you like Music real music by Musicians don't ever let no one called it old school. When greatness is created it's never grow old.
I often wondered who played the drums here. And as another had commented, the bass is just wonderful to hear. As to length, I was extremely happy to have many songs go to longer lengths. At that time, the 2:30 pseudo 'restriction on record length on AM radio was fading. Longer songs (funk genre, rock, etc.) were coming into vogue and were selling. Again, just very happy to hear this full version. Many Than(x) for this post!!!
Absolutely love The song... Do Your Thing! Isaac Hayes what a perfect song to start off the new year of 2017! lovin old school jams, the electric guitar is outrageous! worth listening to at least once! Then you might as well go but the album cause your hooked! love love love it!
No more music genius in the world like this anymore this style of music is extinct!!! No more black artists playing instruments no more bands playing live!!!! I believe if this world had more of this playing out and bringing all kinds different ppl and cultures together the world would be much more rejoice full. Almost 20 minutes of raw funk and soul almost brung tears in my eyes. Uncle Ike is definitely a legend I hate that I missed live in concert god bless your soul and hopefully more of the good music can be replaced on earth from presence to future
Ladies & gentlemen, allow me to introduce to you: Isaac Hayes on vocals & keyboards; Pat Lewis, Rose Williams, & Telma "Tony Orlando & Dawn"/"Family Matters" Hopkins on background vocals; Lester Snell on electric piano; James Alexander on bass; Charles Pitts & Michael Toles on guitars; Gary Jones on congas & bongos; Richard "Johnny" Davis on trumpet; John Fonville on flute... And the incredible, incomparable, irreplaceable, inhuman Willie "Too Big"/"Blues Brothers" Hall on drums. #Shaft

How can a song that’s almost 50 years old, sound so damn good? Real music doesn’t die, it gets better with age! RIP Isaac Hayes.
So true about the music of our youth.
There you go.
Why does that sound so good even though it is 50 years old? because quality was still important back then. Today's people listen to music mostly on cell phones and cheap headphones. I get ear cancer. I only have records or good tapes myself. Recordings used to be recorded with more effort. today everything has to happen quickly. no matter what the quality is. the main thing is to finish quickly and earn money.

1 thing I like about Isaac Hayes: He believed in letting the musicians get theirs! A jam session right here!!
and making you feel like you were at a concert, when listening to his music.
Spoken like a real musician
Brilliant
It's called, do your thing
With two bands…his own,the Movement and the newly reformed Bar-Kays
Uncut, psychedelic funk with kickass, relentless drumming. Epic jam up there with Sister Ray!

Wow what talents and soul. If you like Music real music by Musicians don't ever let no one called it old school. When greatness is created it's never grow old.

BADGE IN JAIL BYE
That drummer is kicking the funk! Do your thing, Willie Hall.
3kingkool ..... And the bass player is right in step with him!
I often wondered who played the drums here. And as another had commented, the bass is just wonderful to hear.
As to length, I was extremely happy to have many songs go to longer lengths. At that time, the 2:30 pseudo 'restriction on record length on AM radio was fading. Longer songs (funk genre, rock, etc.) were coming into vogue and were selling.
Again, just very happy to hear this full version. Many Than(x) for this post!!!
@@johnspencer772 this drum lineage (short snare and insistent charleston) remember me trap music
Don't tell me, your a drummer! lol!!!! I'm digging the bass!!!
That drummer is ripping!!! Lead guitarist is on another level, keyboards is smacking, horns and bass ridculous. Strings pulled it off.
It takes preparation and patience to do an album.
It's like preparing for a
meal.
Man, this is almost 20 minutes long. Worth every second!!
Right I just saw now I hear a Hammond B close out...Lordy
Blew me away in '71. It still does.
Absolutely Mike!!
Future mask off
That album was originally released on Stax distributed Enterprise back in 1971.
🔥 Buttered Soul Isaac Hayes remastered version.
Yess! Indeed. The Funk of it is absolutely genius and that ending so clever & unexpected. Wow!
Although it's the end of 2019 still celebrating the great late... Groove On
First time hearing this extended version Beautiful piece of Funk!!!
Absolutely love The song... Do Your Thing! Isaac Hayes
what a perfect song to start off the new year of 2017! lovin old school jams, the electric guitar is outrageous! worth listening to at least once! Then you might as well go but the album cause your hooked! love love love it!
to think we took this music for granted, it was always there...thank you pr1147
Nineteen and a half minutes of pure bliss !!
No more music genius in the world like this anymore this style of music is extinct!!! No more black artists playing instruments no more bands playing live!!!! I believe if this world had more of this playing out and bringing all kinds different ppl and cultures together the world would be much more rejoice full. Almost 20 minutes of raw funk and soul almost brung tears in my eyes. Uncle Ike is definitely a legend I hate that I missed live in concert god bless your soul and hopefully more of the good music can be replaced on earth from presence to future
70th Birthday Graciously Greatfull Do Gods Thang wherever I am Preaching the Gospel in 2021
This brings back happy memories of a long gone Era. The Era had problems and music like this to soothe the pain.
Music will never be like this..Original sound....pure unadulterated.....pristine......PEACE BLACK MOSES
Indeed!!
Speak....Black Moses. I thought my mom was talking about the Bible when I was about 10 lol...she taught me!
SOUL MUSIC, it will never be the same.
Isaac you'll always be one of a kind. Your music lives on my friend.
Bless you. You're missed.
