That Isaac Hayes' "Theme from 'Shaft'" was STILL being performed 37 years after its initial recording and literally the day before God took him home clearly illustrates the immortality of his work. Imagine how many college marching bands and symphony orchestras have tackled this classic with gusto... A few of the greats who recorded it are `70s soul band The Nite-Liters, jazz drummer Buddy Rich, the irrepressible Sammy Davis Jr. and film composer extraordinaire Henry Mancini. R.I.P. Bro. Ike.
Aww, how come no double high G on the trumpet?
