The full 33 minute, unreleased, psychedelic funk jam session by Memphis rhythm kingpins the BarKays, mixed directly from the original tapes. Contains bonus rhythm section instrumental and booklet detailing the history of this neverbeforeheard version of one of Isaac Hayes most famous songs by Hayes historian Bill Dahl. Hayes was already a cuttingedge funk master at Stax Records when he accepted the unprecedented assignment of creating a soundtrack for the 1971 action flick Shaft. At a time when RB songs routinely timed out at three minutes and under, Hayes albums for Stax s Enterprise imprint had been breaking new ground since 1969. His masterpiece Hot Buttered Soul consisted of only four tracks, two songs on The Isaac Hayes Movement clocked in at a hair under 12 minutes, and one selection on his ...To Be Continued stretched to 15:33. But his epic Do Your Thing, one of the cornerstones of the twoLP Shaft soundtrack, outdid them all. Occupying nearly the entire last side of the set, it concluded after 19andahalf grooving minutes with the overdubbed sound of a needle scratching violently across a piece of vinyl. No one knew that jarring ending masked the existence of another 13 minutes of Do Your Thing. Consigned to the vaults, those improvisatory extensions somewhere in between freejazz and psychedelic rock were seemingly destined never to be heard. Until now. A1. Do Your Thing Part 1 22:07 B1.
