    Pick up exclusive collectible items, plus music from your favorite Stax artists and legends. Multiplatinum-selling artist Isaac Hayes, dubbed “Black Moses” during the height of his popularity, revolutionized soul music, leading it out of the era of the three-minute single into a new area-the orchestrated concept album with (very) extended cuts.
    Hayes began his career as a pianist and staff writer for Stax Records, and, alongside songwriting partner David Porter, wrote some of the biggest hits of the 1960’s, including “Soul Man” and “Hold On! I’m Comin’” for Sam & Dave.
    Expanding his repertoire, Hayes penned the iconic soundtrack for 1971’s Shaft. The album became Hayes’s fourth consecutive platinum LP and the “Theme from Shaft” earned him an Academy Award for Best Original Song.
    Though often known for his larger than life persona, Hayes’ musical accomplishments - which laid the groundwork for disco and rap - established him as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.

    This song still sends shivers down my spine. Talk about grown folk music, this was it. When the album Shaft was released in 1971, it sold out at the Soul Shack in DC so many times. When Isaac appeared at Constitution Hall, the tickets were sold out within a couple of days. I did get 2 opportunities to see him live, once at the Carter Barron in DC and at the Hollywood Bowl in LA. Isaac was a beautiful man and so talented. RIP.

    At the time of the early '70s, the wah wah pedal had been so overused that much of the listening public was sick of the cliche it had become in recordings. But, in retrospect, a few songs like this one, were good examples of where the wah wah guitar was a fun integral part of the song.

      It sure will. I was only 14 when I saw Shaft for the first time. I was so impressed! Back then theaters showed double features. I had to sit through 2 hours of a rock and roll movie called "Joe Crocker, Mad Dogs and Englishmen." And I'm still bored 49 years later. The movie wouldn't have been so bad if I was on drugs. Unfortunately I had not discovered drugs yet. I was a late bloomer.
