This movie is badd ass! I actually bought candy at the stand at the door of the pool hall. thats 30th and Western in L.A.. the green stand you see across the stree from the pool hall is the first original "FAT BURGER" My mom still lives down the sreet. it brought back lots of good memories..Thanks.
Many Thanks for posting this. I've had the soundtrack for years and other like it. I would have hired the movie on DVD if I could but it's just not available for some reason (at least in the UK), so it's good that someone had taken the time to make it available. This film is a piece of history, from a golden age for films and music, the like of which we'll probably never see again. By the way that music accompanying T's approach to the penthouse building - that's what I call funky.
Ivan Dixon was an underrated Director and actor, watch him in the masterpiece "Nothing But A Man", even Sidney Poitier called him an underrated actor.
Throughout the whole film, T never waits in traffic. It always flows his way, he never waits to make a U turn or to make a left across a big highway or anything!
That dude in the gray suit is the late Paul Winfield, who starred in Sounder with Cicely Tyson. He also played the crooked judge in Presumed Innocent with Harrison Ford.
One of the best movie soundtracks of all times..

My favorite Line from this movie was
Jim :
This young buck is good Mr. T,
But he doesn't have any C00L!
Tee :
Then he ain't G00D Jim.

@rjtexas I personally have always liked this version of the song "Trouble Man" better than the original album version. It's more raw and edgy. :-)
