@IntelProperty yes I was looking for the performance he did, I also still have a vivid memory of it....some one has to have it

At first I thought, "Jeez Joel, bowtie big enough?!" Than I get a load of Hayes' tux! All he needed was 8 inch heels with goldfish swimming in them!

@nicktidyman Even though I haven't seen it in 40 yers (since my early teens), I have a vivid memory of that performance and would love to see it again. I remember it as an opulently-staged production, infinitely more lavish and spectacular than any rendition currently available on YouTube, and I think that visitors to this site would marvel at it. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that I, for one, would be willing to pay to own it on DVD...and I suspect that many others would, as well.

My Dad Ernest Tidyman wrote the sceenplay for Shaft. Recently I emailed the Academy of Motion Pictures and they released some video of his acceptance for best adapted screenplay for The French Connection. I would love to see Isaac Hayes' performance at the awards the same year. I'll ask them if they would please release the video. R.I.P. Isaac
"and now, the nominees: 4 white guys who wrote crap you never heard of, and Isaac Hayes with the theme from Shaft."
