Black Moses
(1971)
more music like this
by
Isaac Hayes
The sheer tenacity -- albeit undeniably fitting -- of this double-disc set has made Black Moses (1971) one of Isaac Hayes' most revered and best-known works. The multi-instrumental singer/songwriter and producer had been a central figure in the Memphis soul music revolution of the mid-1960s. Along with Booker T. and The MG's, Hayes' wrote and ...

Pure Funk
(1998)

by
Various Artists
Since Pure Disco was a success, Mercury decided to assemble a sequel, Pure Funk. Like its predecessor, Pure Funk is a terrific 20-track collection of funk classics, from Rick James"Super Freak" to Parliament's "Flashlight." A couple of songs are marginally funk -- it's hard to call the kitsch-fest "Kung Fu Fighting" or Earth, Wind & Fire's sultry ...

Shaft
(1971)
more music like this
by
Isaac Hayes
Of the many wonderful blaxpoitation soundtracks to emerge during the early '70s, Shaft certainly deserves mention as not only one of the most lasting but also one of the most successful. Isaac Hayes was undoubtedly one of the era's most accomplished soul artists, having helped elevate Stax to its esteemed status; therefore, his being chosen to ...

The Very Best of Isaac Hayes
(2007)

by
Isaac Hayes
This is not a bad start, at least as far as single-disc representations of Isaac Hayes' Stax years are considered. The Very Best of Isaac Hayes contains many of the necessities -- his reinventions of "Walk on By," "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," and "Never Can Say Goodbye," alongside originals like "Theme from Shaft," "Do Your Thing," and "Joy, Pt ...

Greatest Hit Singles
(1991)
more music like this
by
Isaac Hayes
One of the best-available Isaac Hayes compilation, Greatest Hit Singles bypasses a couple of his later disco hits, but the result is a more unified sound that helps illustrate why Hayes was so important to the development of '70s soul. Of course, a major part of his legacy consists of the epic-length suites that helped usher R&B into the album age ...

Joy
(1973)
more music like this
by
Isaac Hayes
With seven massive number one records trailing in his wake, Isaac Hayes donned his stylin', funky gold-chain link vest once again and capped 1973 with Joy, a set which might have proven the lucky-streak breaker -- it missed the top spot by one place -- but still waded into gold-record waters with ease. "Joy" itself, of course, was the album's ...

Chocolate Chip
(1975)
more music like this
by
Isaac Hayes
A fine mid-'70s album on which Isaac Hayes adapted to the disco era. His productions were already ideal for dance floors, and he now updated his charts to include some stomping segments with horns and layered beats, while maintaining his soulful vocals on both up-tempo tunes and ballads. This album got two Top 20 hits for Hayes and was his last ...

Hot Buttered Soul

more music like this
by
Isaac Hayes
Released at the tail end of the '60s, Hot Buttered Soul set the precedent for how soul would evolve in the early '70s, simultaneously establishing Isaac Hayes and the Bar-Kays as major forces within black music. Though not quite as definitive as Black Moses or as well-known as Shaft, Hot Buttered Soul remains an undeniably seminal record; it ...

Music supervisor George Acogny assembled some of bubblegum pop's heavy-hitters -- Jessica Simpson, No Authority, and Aaron Carter, among others -- for the soundtrack to Rugrats in Paris: The Movie. For the most part, the songs here offer an hour's worth of Top 40 and R&B confections that are sure to be lip-synched by kids at sleepovers, ...

Featuring a dozen of the best bubblegum hits from the late '70s, this compilation makes for nice lightweight listening. Some songs, such as Parliament's dancefloor classic "Flashlight," still sound as good now as they did the first time around. Others, such as "Shake Your Groove Thing" by Peaches & Herb, make perfect background noise at keg ...

Isaac Hayes
With about seven years of downtime on the recording front, Isaac Hayes burst to life again in 1995 with not one but two albums, released simultaneously with cover art that merges together when placed side by side. One was a collection of old demos and new instrumental tracks (Raw and Refined), but the other -- the disc at hand -- was a brand-new ...

There's a wide range of material here, from singles to deep album cuts, that provide a very representative look at these years, and Stax is even wise enough to include "I ...

Since the majority of Isaac Hayes' most memorable work was during the '70s, Ultimate Collection nabs 13 of its 16 tracks from that decade. Most of Hayes' longer material like "Never Can Say Goodbye," "Walk on By," and "Joy" are shortened from their original versions (although interestingly not the nine-minute "Hyperbol"). The decision to eliminate ...

Although this is Isaac Hayes' third long-player, he had long been a staple of the Memphis R&B scene -- primarily within the Stax coterie -- where his multiple talents included instrumentalist, arranger, and composer of some of the most beloved soul music of the '60s. Along with his primary collaborator, David Porter, Hayes was responsible for well ...

Greatest Hits

Isaac Hayes
The same holds true with this release as with the greatest-hit singles album. Isaac Hayes wasn't a singles artist in the strictest sense; he was an album and production wizard who took time to set up situations, moods, and themes. No single album can effectively communicate what he did in the '70s. Still, just because it isn't definitive doesn't ...
