"... remains one of the crown jewels of American film music and undoubtedly one of the most definitive and innovative scores to ever set sound to celluloid, not to mention a sonic testament to the genius of the amazing Mr. Hayes ..."
- PopMatters.com
"Shaft gave voice to a newly assertive black pride ... at least half of the movie's immediate iconic stature was down to Hayes' soundtrack, a revolutionary funk/soul masterpiece and black music's answer to Phil Spector's rich but edgy wall of sound ... made (Hayes) a cultural leader and a major player ... Shaft has a groove with legs ... 35 years on, Shaft may sound dated, but it's a sound that inspired a generation of soul musicians. Hayes' laid back delivery and gorgeous arrangements are still breathtaking and the album remains a quintessential slice of '70s soul."
- All About Jazz
