It makes me very sad to see how Isaac Hayes is underestimated nowadays. Few speak of his influence and of his innovative samples that still illustrate songs of great artists. Portishead's most famous song comes from a melody from this album, which is certainly the most complete of the musician's career. With an incredible one-and-a-half hour "Black Moses" is all that Soul music has always been and always will be, essential in the eyes of other genres and rich by its origin. Isaac Hayes is gone, but all his legacy will be here to be celebrated.
