Veo pistola en la portada, automaticamente 5/5. No doy mas explaining Nada sorry lo retiro, es una castaña, los nombres de las canciones tene pinta de ser las distintas escenas conforme van saliendo en la peli se va de un restaurante, se encuentra con la novieta, se sube a un taxi... re raro que este disco esté aqui

probably should have just watched the movie...

Vorwiegend eintöniger Instrumental progressive Soul.

Not very many of the songs were on Spotify, so I couldn’t really get his vibe, fully.

Not my type

I'm sorry Mr. Hayes but after the Shaft Theme i couldn't hear anything else on this album cause the constant buildup on Shaft was giving me ANXIETY!!!!!

40 something albums in and this first one I didn’t make it through. What are we doing here?? How is this an album I need to listen to? I’m sure there is some cultural context that I’m not aware of. Either way I’m not interested in instrumental music to a guy walking to and from regio’s. 1.5/10

Okay, when people say "elevator music," they are usually highly exaggerating for the point of saying they find an album or song is boeing, but most of this is literally the equivalent of elevator music. Boring, Kenny G. like woodwind, generic brass blasts, and singing (when it rarely appears) that fails to make any sort of impression. I understand that this is a soundtrack, and in turn is perfect background music, but that's just the issue! It's meant for a film, not for me to spend my day casually listening to. It has the gall to tack a twenty minute track near the end to really seal the deal that this is "nothing" music. Perhaps in the context of the film this is great, but this isn't 1001 films (in which it is also on that list) it's 1001 albums. This wasn't made to be music to listen to solely and consume, it's a soundtrack, and I can name far better soundtracks if we're doing that.

It's a soundtrack with one song! No!

לא אוהב לא אוהב לא אוהב

Kyllä kai leffan taustalla kuuntelisin. Mutta miksi PITÄISI kuulla?

Couldn't do it. Definitely not my style.

Det var för tråkigt

I don't know. This whole album feels like it was cheesy when it was new. It's well put togeather and some of it is catchy but really only because of the movie it is the audio for.

Not for me.

Not a big fan. Majority of it was elevator music. Far too long and caused me to put this project on hold for weeks

1/5 hated the movies/series and what it represents.

Je comprends que la chanson Shaft est une grosse chanson importante de film et que c’est une chanson importante pour Isaac Hayes, mais écouter un soundtrack, c’est long et plate. Probablement que ça fonctionne super bien dans le film, mais je ne réécouterai pas cet album.

Pronounced “meh.”

Terrible, only decent track was the shaft theme

If all the songs where audible on Spotify I could have rated this album 😉

other than the title track this one is pretty dull

Not great.

Can appreciate it sonically, but did not enjoy listening to it.

Nothing special. Soundtrack album that’s mostly funk instrumentals. 2.3/10

I'll make sure to listen to this one when I feel like hating myself

Not really my kind of music. Super repetitive.

„Dir ne Feder in den Arsch zu stecken, macht dich lange nicht zum Huhn!“ Ein Soundtrack ist kein Album. Als würde ich mit geschlossenen Augen fernsehen. Verfehlte 1.0

This had a hit song and then a bunch of forgettable filler.

Not for me.

Wasn’t on Spotify

It feels like I was watching a bad porno... It's a miracle I went through the whole album to be honest...

- Started out with an orchestral piece, but then jumped into Dance or Die which is a boppin piece. - 1/3 of the way through, sounds like a dance pop album? - "a soaring orchestral trip enlivened with blockbuster vocals, mysterious imagery and notes of Sixties pop and jazz"
