Bloodstone: Harry Williams,Willis Draften Jr. Charles Love and Charles Mc Cormick have never been given the props they really deserved! Although the story line was not as strong as most people would like,the acting and the music more than made up for it! It actually was hilarious at times! With a soundtrack,although not really strong on the charts,it is legendary! "What Do I Have To Do" would have made Nat King Cole Proud. "You're My Kind Of Girl" was also a winner! Their rendition of "Money" is a Classic! The title track "Train Ride" was performed with precision,class,and smooth,silky vocal harmonies! All of the songs were great,but these are my personal favorites!

These Men have been in the same class as the Dells,and many other soul groups. Before there was auto-tune,protools,and digital recording,there was Bloodstone! Back in the day,you had to sing,there was no other way! There were no electronic enhancements to help you!Sadly Willis Draften passed away in 2002,Melvin Webb in 1982,and Roger Durham in 1973.

They still perform regularly,with the same great showmanship they have displayed for many years,since 1962.This was the only big screen work for them. The movie was never properly promoted at the box office,and was shelved for years (Made In 1976) until it was released on DVD in 2000.

All the other actors did a tremendous job as well! You will enjoy this!

How can you go wrong with a character named "Stupid Bimbo"? Played by Tracy Reed, a veteran of the TV series' "Kojak" and "Love American Style," who later appeared in "Knots Landing," "McCloud," "T.J. Hooker," "Knightrider," and numerous others...

I bought this movie for the Sheik's harem girls, named after the days of the week; Sunday is my favorite! But the music is good, too! All of the harem girls dance; one of the them belly dances!
