		Temptations had already released longform psychedelic numbers, Hayes was the first to reinterpret the concept in soul terms: his lengthy pieces aren't tacky experimental collages, they're hypnotic mood music, based on organ and horn lines.
		Hayes plays keyboards and vibes throughout the record; the rhythm section is the Bar-Kays, and the Memphis Horns and even the Memphis Symphony Orchestra are also involved.
		Hayes' main talent is as a mood-builder, not as a composer or instrumentalist, but most of these tracks are tossoffs, too slight to really grab your attention.

		Hayes was at the forefront of that renaissance, with his ability to craft perfect pop-soul songs as well as to create symphonic soul and lay the cornerstone for the romantic ‘love man’ randb balladeers who would follow.

	ISAAC HAYES: SOUL PATROL ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAMER
		While he is no longer as vocal or opinionated over the air as he once was, his voice is one that stands front and center AGAINST today's "so called" R&B and FOR looking back at the glorious historical contributions of the past, as a pointer for the direction of the music for the future.
		That Isaac Hayes is such a vocal supporter of the legacy of "Classic Soul/Funk" should come as no surprise since he is also one of the most important creators of that legacy!
		In the liner notes of this album, Stephen Ivory says: "Isaac Hayes treats tried and true pop and R&B classics as if they are nothing more than expensive, polished demos to be transformed and redefined into a dramatic, elongated, blissed-out soul opera of his imaginative design".

	Isaac Hayes: Shaft
		The opening lines to Isaac Hayes' score for the seminal 1971 movie, Shaft, sound like a camp put-on today—but in the early '70s they were about as camp as the Black Panthers.
		Black sexuality and fl pride were explosive issues in an America where the hardcore, fundamentalist preacher Billy Graham had a hotline to the president and the government was determined to hold a metaphorical Mason-Dixon line across US society.
		Hayes' laid back delivery and gorgeous arrangements are still breathtaking, and the album remains a quintessential slice of '70s soul.

		LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Soul music veteran Isaac Hayes, the voice of the libidinous character Chef on the satiric cable TV cartoon "South Park," said on Monday he was leaving the show, citing its "inappropriate ridicule" of religion.
