Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Sure, there are other great soul and funk collections, including the hot UK release Harlem Sessions and the big Rhino release Can You Dig It? The '70s Soul Experience. But none comes with such an exacting unifying premise. A riveting paean to the blaxploitation film era, BaadAsssss Cinema opens with a swift kick in James Brown's "People Get Up and Drive Your Funky Soul." And then the set finds a million ways to groove and sidle in its 57-minute expanse. Here's Curtis Mayfield's "Pusherman" from Superfly alongside Isaac Hayes's theme from 1974's Truck Turner and War's "Happy Head" from Ghetto Man. Horns, slow-mo funk, and fat rhythms swirl amid orchestral arrangements; it's a sound that locks hand-in-glove with the films of the period.
Hidden in plain view are some terrific links with the soul-jazz movement, including organist Lonnie Liston Smith's mind-expanding "Expansions," vibist Roy Ayers's "Coffy Is the Color," and trumpeter Donald Byrd's Blackbyrds churning out "Cornbread." Assembled to accompany the BaadAsssss Cinema Festival, this set gives Marvin Van Peebles, the movement's Godfather, his due with the ultimate throwdown: Earth, Wind & Fire's "Sweetback's Theme," from the first Blaxploitation salvo, the $14 million-grossing 1971 urban epic, Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song. This is supreme stuff. --Andrew Bartlett

5.0 out of 5 stars Baadasssss is right, September 4, 2002
By
S CORBETT (Los Angeles
Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Baadasssss Cinema (Audio CD) You really shouldn't be reading this review, you should be in your car right now on your way to buy this CD. This isn't just a sampling of some of the best music from 70s black cinema, it's a collection of songs that transcends its time and genre. It has not aged, it is not dated, it is simply great music. Period. And some of the coolest, funkiest, socially aware music you could possibly ever own on one CD. You have only to listen to this to realize just how sterile and one-dimensional today's soul and R&B music has become. Oh, and dig the cover artwork--it just doesn't get any more baadasssss than that!

5.0 out of 5 stars What's Old Is New Again., March 18, 2003
By
The Groove (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Baadasssss Cinema (Audio CD) "Baadasssss Cinema" compiles soundtrack hits from the blaxploitation movies of the 1970s, and it literally transplants you to the era where Pam Grier and Fred Williamson ruled the silver screen in all their glory. I'd hate to pick a favorite song off a collection this stellar, but for me, the winner is the groovilicious "Coffy Is the Color" taken from the 1973 revenge fantasy "Coffy." Other main attractions are James Brown's "People Get Up and Drive Your Funky Soul," Curtis Mayfield's "Pusherman" from "Superfly," and the closer Earth Wind and Fire's "Sweetback's Theme" from Melvin Van Peebles debut film. Frankly, the mere fact that the tracklisting has EWF, James Brown, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, WAR, and BT Express should be enough reason for you to get this disc. What's more, these songs have apparently been digitally remastered, so the sound quality is better than what we've heard previously. An absolute must-have for any music collector or admirer of the old school.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good sampling from a bygone era, May 2, 2008
By
Mikhail L. Ponce - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
This review is from: Baadasssss Cinema (Audio CD) Great, great compilation. It has "Sweetback's Theme" by Earth, Wind, and Fire! What else do you need? One of James Brown's most underappreciated songs? Got it! William DeVaughn's one-hit wonder? It's there! Arguably Curtis Mayfield's definitive masterpiece? There too! Stop looking and just buy it.
