does anyone have any info on this colgems release from about '68? I don't know whether to buy it or not.... it's an e-dig and I can't listen to it....can anyone recommend it (or otherwise...)?

it was reissued (at least partially) on a david whitaker comp a few years back. not sure whether it's good but it's certainly a tough one to turn up, and apparently the movie was pretty good in true spy style.
most of the mid/late 60s Colgems are musically pretty damn good and very collectable so even if it's no good you can definitely get your money back unless it cost you an arm and a leg.
oh, and you know who sang the theme song presumablyhttp://www.blaxploitation.com
Chops for show, groove for dough.

ROY HEAD
Same People (Dunhill 70)
I picked up a copy of Same People at the Sound Library. I come home and go to the KUSF record swap and this guy found 100 sealed copies in a warehouse! Anyway, Roy Head brought together all the right elements on Same People. Horns, a driving beat, his rough delivery, and some funk. The title track is a fine example of his blue-eyed soul. Did I mention the breaks? Well there are 2 incredible ones on SheÂ’s About A Mover that I know someone has used before. Nice and long open drums, followed by grunts and exhortations by Head, followed by horns, only to repeat itself shortly thereafter. One of the best drum breaks that IÂ’ve heard in a while. Roy also does a good version of the ever-funky Dyke & The BlazersÂ’ tune Let A Woman Be A Woman. Soul Train is also good.
