Do Your Thing by Isaac Hayes from Shaft (Music From The Soundtrack)

[@matthewmiddaugh2235]

Heard this soundtrack the first time on 8-track when I was 7 years old. Loved it then love it now.

[@drssexy2142]

Wait, i've got an old medal which I will gladly polish up for you to pin on your lapel.

[@moussetache1815]

This track is worth an album by itself, and not only because of its length. It's always been my favorite on this soundtrack.

[@IIESPD00DII]

It’s pretty much the entire D side

[@chrishinnant3924]

@@IIESPD00DII yep and then you got the end theme

[@raygu1818]

This and the long version of Walk On By has to be 2 of the best musical masterpieces in history 🤘🏿

[@nageshchabba5162]

Listening to it for the last 40years. Still feel this a new one. Encouraging and soothing.

AMAZING LEGACY AND GOD-GIVEN TALENT FROM THE LEGENDARY MULTI-TALENTED ISAAC HAYES

[@kylehinton299]

This whole album was/is off the chart.

[@gregoryw562]

Only Isaac Hayes and George Clinton could make jams this long and you want to listen to the whole thing, because of all the nuance in a single track. Brilliant!

[@daniel.holbrook]

check out fela kuti as well if you like this :)

[@damedame712]

listening to ISAAC HAYES music you will keep a frown on your face..i had to pause this a couple of times cause my face hurted.....my goodness..this is that FUNK FOR YOUR SOUL....

[@michaelwehle5136]

That is not a frown: it is, rather, a look of intensity.

[@peterdarrylslaughter7390]

Yes, it's like that when you attend one of the services at the church of FUNK.

This is such a Funk Filled extravaganza. Isaac Hayes Black Moses is a Genius

The track itself is an experience, but the sound quality and production on Isaac Hayes in general are above most you could compare.

[@jerrytaylor821]

I enjoyed the music of my youth because if they weren't teaching from the heart they were jammin like Black Moses. The live concerts started at 9pm until. The tickets were $6.50 and you could sit first come first seated. I saw him first row center no problem. Enjoy the music!

[@chrishinnant3924]

I just love those loooooooong tracks. To to name a few, this track of course, then you got, "Autobahn" by Kraftwerk, "Get Ready" by Rare Earth, "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" by Iron Butterfly, Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells" which takes up both sides of the album. The list goes on and on and on and on. Oh and one more Jethro Tull "thick as a brick" it takes a both sides of an album as well.

[@darren.plateroti]

Ike’s version of “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” was just a shade under 19 minutes, and is just as phenomenal!

This music bring back a lot of memories What happened to music when they use real instruments and you hear that little sounds of the real instruments ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Need to bring the old music that some of these young people nowadays know what real music is all about the music nowadays have a lot of cussing in iti back in the days you can use any kind of bad language in the records in the songs you couldn't use no kind of bad language now is that people say anything they want to say in the sounds they make today Let's bring the old music back

[@chrishinnant3924]

Man you said a mouthful. I miss those days when family can sit by the record player, or you had that big console stereo with automatic record changer in your living room. Your family sitting on the couch eating a snack. Listening to Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and of course Isaac Hayes, and the list goes on and on. Damn I miss those days.

[@janicejames899]

A masterpiece movie soundtrack of all time

[@ivanapudar16]

Damn right ❤️🤘🖤

[@davide.robinsoniii5869]

I just wish that on KZbin there was a recording of this song that goes straight into the "End Theme" (after the scratch). I like the way the song builds up to that...like (imagine if you will) a woman going into labor and the baby is delivered (the "scratch" going into the End Theme from Shaft being the Baby Shaft).
