Multiplatinum-selling artist Isaac Hayes, dubbed “Black Moses” during the height of his popularity, revolutionized soul music, leading it out of the era of the three-minute single into a new area-the orchestrated concept album with (very) extended cuts.
Hayes began his career as a pianist and staff writer for Stax Records, and, alongside songwriting partner David Porter, wrote some of the biggest hits of the 1960’s, including “Soul Man” and “Hold On! I’m Comin’” for Sam & Dave.
Expanding his repertoire, Hayes penned the iconic soundtrack for 1971’s Shaft. The album became Hayes’s fourth consecutive platinum LP and the “Theme from Shaft” earned him an Academy Award for Best Original Song.
Though often known for his larger than life persona, Hayes’ musical accomplishments - which laid the groundwork for disco and rap - established him as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.

THAT ORGAN THO, How He Kept That Organ At 1 Note/Level?? Issac Hayes is A Genius..
He is one of the greatest.... a true entertainer.
I experienced this pain from a wayward
women, this song brings me right back
THERE! Tremendous song !
This is the Album that got me and my brothers through Vietnam!!!
Yes, got me and my brothers through Vietnam.
Beautiful!
And Lord God we appreciate all of our Vietnam veterans service, male and female!!!!! NONE of you guys got the thanks and recognition that you all so richly deserved. Even though l was a little girl in the late 1960's and mid 1970's when y'all came on back home, l STILL see the difference between how people talked about the WWII and Korean vets and the Nam vets. It was painful to see my cousin l adored come back home.... DIFFERENT. There was a sadness that he carried. A pain that couldn't be eased by anyone. I still miss his smiling eyes before he was drafted. Thanks again for your comment regarding your brothers and you, as well as your service to this ungrateful nation. Peace and continued BLESSINGS to you and your family.
I WAS IN IN vietNam also my brother, this song is one of my favorites we used to smoke the pipe and listen to Issac. those were the good times for some
It got me through basic training for the Air Force in Sept 1969. Still getting me through life! Best ever. Thanks, Isaac.
R. I. P. Ike!! Love you so very much my dear friend.
I'm 60 years old now, and I will never forget, I was working with a Caucasian guy who was younger than me when Isaac was at the second wave of his Fame (CHEF)on South Park.
When I had told my coworker about Isaac Hayes back in the day, and went to RUclips and played this he couldn't believe it, and found such much more admiration for Isaac after finding out his real claim to fame.😁
Sorry to bother you, but perhaps you know the title of a song I’m looking for. I wonder if it exists as a single piece on yt.
In the A-Team episode titled The Heart of Rock n’Roll S04 E06 Isaac Hayes is singing this song and I fell in love with it. I’ve written down the lyrics from hearing and ‘ve been googling them,
I’ve been listening to his music available on yt but cannot find it -
‘what do you do when the one you love is gone
how do you face each day all alone
how do you smile when the pain is growing inside’
Regards to You from a random Caucasian girl.
Damn, Moses don't hurt nobody. This is grown folk music.
What about Walk on By 🎉🎉🎉
A///a///2//2mwa@. W😊’ Ms a❤😊
S me😅😅😅😅😅 A 9
This is one of the songs my mom played on a Saturday morning clean ups. When everyone in the neighborhood was your aunt or uncle. The neighbors can whip you if you done bad, even teachers. The community was tight and right. Wouldn't change it for nothing.
Life was good
Yo, that's how I came up! Those days are the reason why I'm still here.
Yes! ❤
And, Walker on By… ❤🎉
I love it. We're from the same era. Peace and Love
Thanks for letting him give us this great music he left us with always loved this man I am 65 years old love him 😂
18 minutes and 45 seconds of pure musical genius.....
Today is the first time I’m hearing this. Strangely enough, it reminds me of my Mom and Dad… My Dad was from Kentucky. He moved out to Las Vegas where he met my Mom who was 15 years younger than him. It’s strange how things happen. He was working in Vegas and my Mom went there just for a few days to get away with my Great Grandma. My parents were 2 heartbroken people from complete opposite sides of the country who never would’ve met had they both not been in Vegas at that precise moment in time. My Dad flew to LA and drove to the San Fernando Valley every weekend to see my Mom. They finally got married and he moved to Los Angeles. 2 years later, I was born… Much like the story in this song, my Mom cheated on him. He drank and gambled a lot though. They had their problems and divorced when I was still a baby but they always loved each other until the day he died, despite him eventually remarrying. My Dad died from cancer in 2008 and today marks 47 years since he and my Mom got married. As I was listening to this and thinking about my parents, my Mom text to tell me today would’ve been their 47th wedding anniversary, just as I was thinking of it. How very strange. Sometimes we hear a song at a precise moment in time for a reason… I love this man’s music. I often play ‘Walk On By’ and ‘Joy’ back-to-back when I go on my walks around the parks… They just don’t make music with soul like this anymore. RIP Isaac Hayes.
🌹
This is why this song touched so many Hot Buttered Souls
Your story is precisely what Isaac meant by "THE POWER OF LOVE ❤❤!"
My step father used to play Ike 90% of the time he played music. Mama did him bad for 10 years before he left. I turned 21 and realized what we had put this great man through. I got in front of him, begged him to forgive me and got on my knees and cried and thanked him. By then he had a new wife, three children who loved him and secretly had six months to die of pancreatic cancer. Never told anybody about the cancer except his wife and mama. I still love him, he was there when I needed to see what a man does. Mama will never admit she messed up, but like the Afrakan spiritualist say, a woman is never wrong. Still and always will love Daddy, yet my step father did what a man should do, for ten kids he did NOT bring into this world and he did it for ten years. By the time I get to Phoenix was one of his favorites.
Too All the Unsung Fathers who are the TRUE HEROES out there! I miss the man who raised me as his own ...and Fight you about him today..! Much love to all.
You know, this is a really inspiring comment!
How COURAGEOUS of YOU to share your story!!! Especially admitting the things you felt you were responsible for as a Son...YOU ARE ONE HELLUVA MAN IN YOUR OWN RIGHT! Never forget that! Peace & Gods Bessings upon you in your LIFE ALWAYS!
I love you!!!!! A real one
Brother that piece if your life story brought tears 2my eyes.
ISSAC HAYES AND BARRY WHITE MADE SOME OF THE BEST LOVE SONGS EVER, NOBODY COULD TOUCH THEM. TODAYS SINGERS COULD NOT TOUCH THEM IN SINGING OR WRITING MUSIC. RIP BLACK MOSES & THE MAESTRO
His awesome voice along with the great musical instruments had a way of sending one to outer limits.
Amen cant touch the oldies..Idk what that stuff is they listen to now awf
TWO WORDS....... LUTHER VANDROSS!!!!!!
What can you add to greatness.Nothing.Old Folks.Soon past away.Greatness never.
Songs made from the 70s-80s were made with soul, true feelings, emotion.
The stars in the galaxy aligned when they recorded this song. Issac sung and the musicians played their instruments like they knew what this situation was truly like.
Sho u right...awesome!!
A really nice way to describe Ike's music. The musicians of his era were so talented and the period they came from was filled with pain and strife but it gave them the foundation to create great music like this song.
Yesssssssssss
My father Robert LeeJr. Loved to play Issac Hayes when hey had the weekend an I want to say I love you a single father in the 1960 may he rest in PEACE 😎😎
He was playing the organ, I think
One of the greatest love songs ever recorded. ♥️
Christopher Lange yup
The truth
I totally agree ..there is no one today who can transmit the feeling and emotion of Isaac Hayes. His voice is velvet.
I agree! I also love 💕 Glenn Campbell ’s version too!!!!
One of the greatest albums ever recorded, it's a masterpiece.
I was a kid growing up somewhere in Africa. I had the sleeve of this album “Black Moses” on my wall. Best rapper, story teller and poet that ever lived.
He Embodied Black Manhood back in the day as young girl!
One word you have missed.... GENIUS
Thank You Ken
One of America`s greatest singers of all time. Isaac, you are missed by the world at large!
Yes Black Moses is Truely Missed.Well Appreciated.
This was music, This is music and this will be music, Wow!!!
@@christinezaza39 Yes A Real Masterpiece
Pure Brilliance!!!!
Great Music 🎤🎷🎸🎹🎺🎻🥁
I met Isaac outside of the Chicago theatre in 1980 , and he could not have been nicer. I was a 19 yr old white kid , and it suprised me how kind he was to me (and everyone else) I don't know why it suprised me. He was a class act to be sure , and a giagantic talent !.
S H ❤️
He was intelligent, not ignorant... understand the real deal.
Me too, met him at Madison Square garden in new York when I first came to the United states. What a concert it was. My neighbor from Liberia took me. Yes.
Class
@Jorge Tomasz lo
Damn... this hurt my soul for ol' boy! I listened to this going to work one day 5am, I was so deep into it I drove right past my exit.
😀😀😀😀😀
I doubt if ike made it to Phoenix. ..no way he could steady his nerves driving with so much emotion pouring thru his heart!
Been there, done that.
@@adaiyah-zerahbahtyahudah7860(respect) wow, you have got a fly name!
It’ll do it… mind deep fo real!!!!!
Was privileged to see Ike perform this in 1970 as a student at Univ. of Houston. I was one of the few white guys in the audience. I was so proud because some of my brothers did not come back from Nam and they turned me on to Ike. He was a master and I will forever remember his impact on my life. RIP Ike.
Saw him in Ft Collins, CO at Homecoming CSU. It's predominantly white but there was a Black invasion that night!! It was great!
Fee 3
Stax Records, thank you.....I used to play this song every Saturday while cooking. Great to see that some artists were actually poets, songwriters, and singers. Isaac Hayes will always be remembered. This is definitely a MASTERPIECE!
This is a really nice , down- to -earth, honest comment!
same thing here every sunday my dad played this while we got haircuts
And then we asked him for a mirror and he gave his Isaac Hayes album and say look at that
Cheers ✌️
Es y será infinito y grande esto es música.
This song is deep....Young people nowadays are missing out ...
Song is still here! Maybe they can still get hit by it!
Nope! We witnessed chocolate balls from South Park
A chick explained this song to me right before she kicked me to the curb
@@THESUPERDOOLEY Wow...
I remember shaft and his tone so powerful kept me mesmerized to think on life at the time a genius whose music lives on for those who know
My daddy loved my mom the same way,no matter what she did wrong he just couldn't leave her.
I just couldn't love someone that much. Right now today I remember the things she did to hurt him.
Their both gone now,but I haven't forgotten the hurt she did to my dad. And I still feel his pain I will never love a man that much.
I was a teenager when this classic was released. Proud to say that I have my vinyl copy in mint condition purchased in 1969.
I heard that! I have my copy on mint condition vinyl as well. There's just something about the poignancy and depth of the sound that can only be found within those grooves.
I wore mine out
@@lelandwilliams1089 good
The message is just as powerful today as it was when it first came out. RIP Issac Hayes. A Master of his music.
BET
This is what rap should sound like we miss you Ike. R.I.P.

This actually happened to me 1972, military Las Vegas, sad times. Her loss, even to this day she says I’m the best man she ever had
Good
Never too late to learn.
Too bad she didn't realize til it was too late!
N-E-X-T!
Sorry
@@candacetyndall6142 yes
Been there, done that! 1979 was the end and I love him more today than I did then.
This song takes you there and brings you back! 7 times he left this woman and 7 time he came back! The power of love was upon him! Until his heart caught up with his mind!... by the time I get to phoenix.....
Samuel Mahmud ok
I felt this song...I was in this position....😔
I listen to this song EVERY day.
Isaac Hayes ' ability to tell this heartbreaking event through a song is sheer brilliance. I've been listening to his records since the 70's.
I wish there was footage available showcasing Mr. Hayes and his fantastic second- to- none musicians during this recording session .
Yes
"HE LEFT! HER 7 TIMES! & CAME BACK! SPEECHLESS!🙏💞😷🙏💞😷🙏💞😷🙏
R.I.P BlackMose thank u for leaving us the best music in the world.
I second that motion !!!
I 3rd that. ❤
I fourth that
@@shannonperry8827 I fifth that.
This piece really, really touches my soul when I hear it,wonderful best memories of the 70s.
I am 66 years old and I remember when this came out it catches your soul and all these years later it still does. I come in and listen to it whenever I'm in the mood. I even love listening to the lingo of that time
There were NONE better !!!! The memories I have of that time in my life are totally brought back in the music...... as if it is now !!!!!!!!
@@robertsmith8728 Somehow I got onto a video from the movie superfly from back in the day. Oh my goodness talk about memories Curtis Mayfield was incredible and way ahead of his time.
It's called soul music
@@danielspikes9534 Duh really thanks for telling me captain obvious. I forgot more about soul music and R and B and blues than you'll ever know
@@patriciadavis1393 I listen to Issac Hayes and Barry White, The Maestro, whenever I get that nostalgic feeling. It literally makes me cry, a good cry. Too bad they are both gone on.
Issac Hayes is one of the greatest of all time. He could do it all. I feel privileged to have grown up in the 60s and 70s. He did the music for the original Shaft movie with Richard Roundtree..still a classic album.
True true true 💯 true
Amen
He's Numero Uno!!
Amen bro... I only discovered the great man in 2012, I'm in my 50s, love all music, this is up there with every other masterpiece. From All and any genre's. ✌️
Not not only was he a great songwriter and a composer and a singer
I remember riding wit my dad at the age of 10, sitting in the back seat, going to visit my aunt in new york, I cried because I felt so bad for Isaac, it's amazing how a ten-year-old can relate to such a beautifully Written song without having experienced love yet it was equivalent to watching a movie
That must have been a very powerful, intuitive experience bro.
It most definitely was Leonard 💪💪
A real rap song mixed with the blues.
Derrick, I had the PURE PLEASURE OF MEETING ISAAC HAYES, the day after I attended his concert in Akron, OHIO. I must say he was very polite, dressed from head to toe in white. You could have brought me for a penny.
Damn Kathy, you just showing off now 🤣🤣😘😘
Simply a masterpiece from beginning to end....
Yes it is!😊
Still listen to Issac Hayes I was listening to Issac Hayes one day my 18yr old grandson ask me grandma what you know about that slap
PI didn't even think about that look like DJ would know better. Today i just want to SCREAM I am SO DISCUSSED WITH EVERYTHING. TIRED OF THE PROBLEMS IN THIS APARTME NT AS IF I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR. I CAN'T HAVE NO PEACE
i am afraid to even have a relationship. No privacy. After ALL these years i still can't have company
Definitely & in,2021 it still has the same effect as in, 1968
ISSAC HAYES IS WAS, AND ALWAYS WILL BE KING. BLACK MOSES YOU ARE ADORED
After all these years..... This song still has the potential to make me cry my eyes out.
Hollering crying. Hurt so bad
Amazing recording. This is deep, deep stuff
My dad played this over and over. NOW I Do. One. Of the greatest man songs of all time. Before it was these young cats. , There was ISSAC.
Isaac Hayes achieved immortality when he recorded this epic song. Immortality is what many great leaders strive for during their life time. Issac Hayes you are still living among us as we played your music.. love you the great one
A true classic. Great !

WOW...A Masterpiece!
Awesome Mr Hayes
Man the horns🎷🎺 and strings🎻🎸 on this jam🎼, you can’t touch them they go right to the 💔 The pain in this man’s ❤️
As a child I thought the Black Moser stuff was a bit over the top, however as I approach my 59th year I understand that Ike's vision and production was from the heavens and he was truly a latter-day Moses of rythym and love.
Thank you Mr. Hayes. Stax Records Memphis Tennessee my hometown. We saw him alot in Whitehaven. He is a legend. Respect to him . RIP Mr Isaac Hayes.
Simply amazing! I've been listening to this for over 45 years and each time I hear it, it touches my soul.
This cat was awesome just what I needed when I needed it. Thanks Ike. RIP. Douglas Dunbar.
Rest in Peace Mr Hayes. Thank You Sir

Man when those strings come in .... goosebumps
I can listen to this album all day and never get tired of it. Listen to the instruments in the background. I was able to attend his first concert in Chicago, thanks to Robert G. Robert left and never came back. Oh, how my heart ached!! I went on a vacation to Phoenix, Az., because of this song. A little MERCY is in order. Robert purchased this album for me as a gift, oh, how I treasured it.
Straight up GREATNESS! RIP my brother..
This song is on the money! The absolute BEST long song around.....I am so glad I was a kid who grew up in the 1970's.
This song is just so deep...it really only could have been composed in the era it came from,late 60's-early 70's, when so much of the greatest music ever recorded expressed the promise of this country ( and the world)... Motown, Philly International, Stax, and others. It was just a truly awesome time for recording artists to shine brilliantly!
Sho nuff I was just a kid man, when I heard this song. Dunbar Jr High School. 1969. Brings back so many memories
Deep to the core indeed. I'm 48 and can't get enough of this soul.
Monique, you're only a youngster!lol!
Also a time when the heart truly felt music....music was still our GO TO EMOTIONAL SECURITY BLANKET...
Wow a Chi-Town bro...thats when the Chi was on & poppin' for us lil grass hoppers. Go Kenwood...lol
Love this song, 83 years old. Grew up in the best era US ever had. If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy
Bought this album when it was first released; still absolutely love this version
IMO this is the very best version of this song.
Isaac's music is great Love all his music songs great voice he's missed a lot
Truly soul food! So deep ... it feeds your soul and takes you to places deep within your heart ❤️

Awesome;Takes U back👏🏽☝🏽sleep on miestro
I miss Isaac Hayes all I have is his music.......... I'm a TN born and raised.
Had me crying and longing for those days of real music. This hit to the core of your soul. And it still does in 2020. You could feel it when he said, "Whyyyyy?"
Isaac and I were great friends spent lots of time together for many years I miss him and his music such an amazing talent. RIP Isaac
He will forever remain in your heart and mind.
The best rapper of all time!!!
Ike and gil-scot heron!

I was a ten year old kid when my older sister introduced me to Issac Hayes. I loved the music then and now and I will love it forever.
Aàaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I wish you all could have been around in the 60's! When this first came on the radio, that was IT!
74 years old
This man was so imaginative and original! To redo the music he did and make them so different,like they were his own,NEW songs,which they became--just a brilliant,SOULFUL musician!
Yes, he was and he was an instrumentalist as well.
This is what you call a true-blue "cry in your beer" and get drunk to song.
Candace, if you do that you'll never be able to leave and the only thing youll have to show for it is a hangover the next morning ...lol
Love is an emotional ride up and down sometimes forward sometimes backward , but no doubt "love "is very powerful and we humans crave it sooo much ... ❤️
Love is blind! It can break your heart and step on it! Isaac Hayes was super talented artist! Poet, singer, actor, and songwriter, author! He is being deeply missed! Still listening to his music!!!💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
I have it on good authority that there were at least three children born from listening to this mans music. I Sick ( in love ) Hayes!!
One of the best renditions EVER.
That voice, that pain, those trumpets...40 years ago we made love to it over and over. That stuff just stays with ya forever
mama why.............this song and isaac hayes will survive us all and we meet him in heaven thank you stax records
I was 15 when first heard this version by Isaac Hayes, its like the very first time , he was great!
a great old friend......sure do miss you Isaac.........Memphis Blues Man
👌🤘👍
Bill Deskin god bless you
He didn't do blues, unless you meant R&B
You can't find too many like him around and everyone has the flavor but it's just a imitation.
Isaac's music was the closing for some of his concerts. Most of us had been the accuser and the rest of us were the accused.
I loved the way he held the one chord throughout the entire set-up. When he started singing and changed the chord, it was the most powerful release of tension. Beautifully done. Isaac was a the man.
That part RIGHT THERE!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That's Issac for yah
I feel it
😍it's *soul power* Isaac *REALLY* has me feelin it❣🌞🕊
Yes i love the one chord that was the best.
I mean who does that! One chord for 11 minutes. And sounds good for every second
I meant Isaac his music brother from my sister-in-law my brother's wife 1972 young boy and Junior high getting ready to go to high school Isaac stay with me until this day by the time I get to Phoenix Walk on by and all the others God bless you Isaac thank you for the memories I pray for also the people that's listening to his music blessings prosperity and a good life and the name and blood of Jesus
We called him the black Moses when I was in college in thex70's.
Now we should know that Moses was black....
And you went to college Mr. Thex. Alright, did you graduate? lol. Cora Hudson Guice
Damn Right
Moses could rap! He could moan too! Moses be laying down those tablets!
I gotta start studying him
More listening gives chills
I gonna answer 2 da maker
Praying(preying)
I hope
No deadbeat
It is IMPOSSIBLE to listen to this Masterpiece and not be moved deeply. A True Genius was Mr. Hayes!!! This will be a Classic greater than Mozert.
The greatest greatest artist of all time Isaac Hayes
The storyteller of life, love and heart break. Beautifully done.
Beautifully written too!
I saw Issac Hayes in concert in the mid 70s, full orchestra and it was fantastic. We were very fortunate to have lived during that time, the so called music today can not hold a candle to the music then. I am 75 years old and I always play music from that era.
Amen, No One could do it like Mr. Ike!!
"BLACK MOSES" a true artist... such brilliance he's left fans and the music industry...All his BEAUTIFUL MUSIC !!
no disrespect to Glen Campell, this is the best redone ever,for it is Isaac Hayes and that is it a true Genius
Dwayne Rose Glen Campbell did this song first I always thought it was Isack song
@@ramoncscott797 It is Isaac Hayes song
Either way they got my respect, for the foundation
Isaac gave it that touch of Soul.
I love Glen Campbell's version . But this is different. This is raw emotion. I agree with you too. One word. Only one GENIUS
I remember when I bought this album so many years ago, I could not believe how great his baritone voice was, great range and feeling. A genius who was so creative in his music.
Thats the "Trooth!" Just like ike said! Lol
Remembering Ike on his 80th birthday!!!! I had the great pleasure of meeting Mr. Hayes in 2004, when he visited Philadelphia's annual October Art Gallery. He was the honored guest, and I owned a black film poster booth at the event. I had the original poster of "Truck Turner" waiting to give him, he accepted and was very gracious. One of my highlights in the film poster business.
Great song, great arrangement, and greatest PERSON to ever sing this song..His music will never fade....
My mom has played this this my hold life, now I'm 40 and am playing this for my kids.
My Favorite Storyteller!
This song is out of this world!!
