"My pal put this on a tape for me, and after listening, I searced and searched for the CD. Not many people know it exists (as I am only the 2nd person to comment). This album is wonderful. Diverse and easy to listen to, it speaks to all kind of audiences. I really enjoy it every time I listen to it."

Great music, but 10 tracks not enough

"This "greatest hits" sampler of songs from 1970s blaxploitation flicks has some great tracks, from the obvious "Theme from 'Shaft'" and "Pusherman" to Bobby Womack's deliriously soulful "Across 110th Street" (it's the song that plays over the opening credits of Tarantino's "Jackie Brown"). Marvin Gaye's "Trouble Man" and Willie Hutch's elegant ballad "I Choose You" are fine tracks for the bedroom playas. The problem with this album is that it doesn't go far enough. A CD can hold up to 78 minutes worth of music, and this one has only about 40. I would have been happy just to hear some period instrumentals from some of these great flicks. Volume 2, please!"
