Some soul artists spent the mid-’70s losing their hearts to disco and their fans with them, but Hayes was one of the few that managed to make dance floor-ready floor fillers without losing the essence of himself in the process. Case in point, I Want To Make Love To You So Bad, a disco thriller with the kind of urgent, soulful heart that makes it an...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocm8M0BvOhI No one could convey an emotion like Issac Hayes. As udiscovermusic.com says, on Going In Circles, he takes apart what The Friends Of Distinction had achieved on their original version of the song in 1969, and puts it back together again to form one of the most emotionally powerful cuts on Black Moses. Eve...
If any other singer could have gone head to head with Hayes in the ’70s and stood a chance of being the sexiest and most soulful of the two, it was Mille Jackson. On Feels Like The First Time, the two come together on what has to be one of the sultriest, grooviest songs of the decade.
In fairness, Let’s Stay Together was an epic song long before Hayes even came near it. First recorded by Al Green in 1972, it reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent nine weeks at the top of Billboard’s R&B chart. Since then, it’s been named one of Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and been voted into the National Recording...
Motown hitmaker Clifton Davis originally wrote Never Can Say Goodbye for the Supremes, but before they got a chance to record it, it was decided it would be a better fit for the Jackson 5. It became one of the group’s best-selling singles, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in the US and number 33 on the UK Singles Cha...
A song written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David and originally recorded by sixties pop siren Dusty Springfield doesn’t sound the most natural fit for a ’70s soul man like Issac Hayes, but even if the pairing sounded strange on paper, it sounded beautiful on the radio. Obviously, he couldn’t resist mixing things up, with the result that his version a...
Hayes’ first solo album, Presenting Isaac Hayes, bombed. Bombed so badly, in fact, he was on the verge of cutting his losses and going back to being a songwriter and producerwhen Stax Records suddenly lost its entire back catalog and ordered every one of its artists to record an album, pronto. Hayes reluctantly agreed, but only on the condition he ...
Joy, Hayes’ sixth studio album, was a hit, charting at number 16 on the Billboard 200 and eventually certifying gold. It’s also a giant slice of funky goodness, with the title track standing out as one of its most divine moments. Described by the LA Times as “epic” and “maybe the most sensual outing he ever recorded,” it’s pure, unadulterated bliss...
Issac Hayes might not have invented disco (although considering that Shaft is widely regarded as one of the very first disco songs, there’s a good argument to be made that he did) but he certainly perfected it. Don’t Let Go is one of the most soulful, funky dance floor fillers to ever make it to tape. Released as the lead single from the 1979 album...
Obviously, there can only be one song at the top of our list of the ten best Issac Hayes songs of all time, and just as obviously, that song was always going to be – had to be – the theme tune to Shaft. Even if you’ve never seen the film, the song will have been indelibly printed on your brain since you were old enough to understand the value of a ...
