One the topic of blaxploitation films, has anyone heard James Brown's
soundtrack for the movie "Black Caesar"? I heard it once at Incredible
Records in Toronto and the guy who owns it told me that it would probably
be years before I find another copy of it in this city. I've only
heard a couple of songs off it. Can anyone give an overall brief review of
it along with how easy/hard it was to get a hold of it. Thanks.
