I remember this version of "Theme from Shaft" from a 1972 Pickwick album of the biggest hits of 1971; it seems that this recording may've been by British music conductor Stanley Black, though if anyone knows for sure I'd be glad to know. This sure ISN'T Isaac Hayes' original.
I was watching this and noticed that these call letters are now those of a station 13 in Toledo Ohio which used to be nbc and is now abc

Isn't WTVG a callsign for the ABC O&O station in Toledo?

Yes, since 1979 - the same year Newark's Channel 68 became WWHT.

Or was it "Soul Mann and The Brothers"?

Ah, good old Wometco. I believe this was the first pay-tv station? (during nighttime hours, at least)

Is that the voice of John Pichitino?

Either that or Bob Fassbender.

I always thought it was Bob Fassbender, but I'm not 100% sure.
