Editorial Reviews

Not just another blaxploitation soundtrack compilation, this is a collection of music taken from 1970's X-rated African-American films and available for the first time anywhere. These X-rated films feature less "by the numbers" funk and more improvised grooves and "avant garde" textures than the typical blaxploitation soundtracks. Using mainly jazz musicians from Oakland, CA (where many of these films were made), these recently uncovered master tapes (and the 16 pages of color photos) are sure to delight buffs of this genre.

I heard the track "Theme Song from The Turtle" on pandora.com. Really creative and a nice groove! I'm adding this CD to my shopping cart!
