An era of its own. A time when American was in a transition from separatism to civil rights. The 70's was a Golden Age on so many levels and the influence echoes around the world in present day. Blaxploitation is considered in my opinion to be the coolest of cool. Touching on the most sensitive material in America at its time and exploiting them on the big screen or the vinyls in your record player produced for a glorified genre that nobody will ever be able to duplicate. Our mission at Blax-Pride is to educate those who are unfamiliar with this era and combine knowledge with those who are familiar.
Also you will notice Kung Fu movies on this site as well. What does this have to do with Blaxploitation? Well, the more action packed Blaxploitation films did not just street fight. Oh no.....they thought they were Kung Fu Masters. Chinese martial art movies gave a sense of invincibility to these actors. Seeing how cool it was to be a masterful fighter, why not just integrate this with Pimpin', Hustlin', Jive Talkin' and Pam Grier? Blax-Pride!!!

George Martin, ex-Beatles producer, put together the soundtrack to James Bond's entry into the black action genre in 1973. Paul McCartney's band Wings provide a memorable theme while the rest of the soundtrack is composed of variations of the Bond theme in a terrific 1970s funk style. Unfortunately, as with so many of these movies, the best music from the film remains on celluloid rather than vinyl, but this is still a top-drawer funk soundtrack LP and well worth a listen.
