Isaac was wonderful, a real pioneer of soul music!. He will be missed!. A tribute on CBC Radio just played "Shaft", and it brought back memories of how much that song was played on the radio, in the day!.

Attached is a link to tributes by Dionne Warwick, Sam Moore, and soul queen Aretha Franklin!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I remember as a child watching those so called Black Exploitation flicks!. "Love Them" anyways, Issac Hayes, played "Foxy Brown's", Pam Grier love intrest!. He wasn't sexy at all, however, his presence was great!. also, he could play each section of an orchestra!. He was a very talented and loving man!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've got pretty much everything he's ever done and it's a big loss to the world of music to lose another legend who was an inspiration to me and many thousands more!.
May he be funking it up with other top groovers wherever he may be!

Yes I remember his name, and the music, but what does that have to do with the genealogy section!. Better that you put your question in the music section!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yeah, I always enjoyed listening to the man, he was very talented!.
I know Chef came much later but that was a stroke of genius on the animators part, he was perfect for the part!
