I don't really care for Isaac one way or the other but I love a good long jam at the end of a song!

For the length of this number, you could have had a long leisurely crap and read a good part of War & Peace. Boy, did Hayes' band know how to pad a song out, or what? |

Warwick is fine if you're in the mood for happy, lighter fare, but if you want to groove then the rhythm on Isaac Hayes' version takes the song to a whole other level!! |

The longer this song goes, the lower my rating. Good songs are like fingernails. Good things to have until they start getting annoyingly long.

Sweet - I dig the Chef version of this song! My favorite lyrics: "You put the hurt on me. You socked it to me!"

Man, I used to listen to this LP with friends on Friday nights. Crank up the volume and totally rock the place! Excellent production and the BarKays! My favorite track, though, is Hyperbolicsyllabicsesquedalymistic. Crank up THAT one!
