There are quite a few famous ones; Shaft, Superfly, Across 100th Street, Pipedreams, Lets Do It Again, The Mack, Trouble Man, Sweet Sweetbacks, Coffy, etc BUT there were many more made between 1970 & the mid 70's.

Lots were pure garbage, film wise, but still had decent soundtracks. Dave Godin always recommended 'Cotton Comes To Harlem' and in others, decent soul artists make cameo appearances (the 3 Degrees, Mary Love & more).

Anyone here recommend one either cos it's a decent watch or cos it features great music ?

this is a good CD, not seen the films though

Tough guys / Issac Hays think he acted in it as well good soundtrack though

Willie Dynamite soundtrack by JJ Johnson is a great album, Martha Reeves sounds great !!!

There’s loads of Blaxploitation films on YouTube, many obscure ones. Having said that, most of them are not actually that good… but some of the soundtracks have great tunes.

I used to be many many years ago in a video swap group of the genre and we got together to watch them, also had a night I Dj’d at called B-Movie where we showed a film each night on grainy VHS as part of the night.

Black Belt Jones is good and has the greatest ever car wash fight scene of course… but Black Belt Jones 2 is so bad it’s hilarious… Coffey in his platforms with goldfish in the soles… Truck Turner who is so bad he chins someone in a wheelchair getting out of a lift.. Blackula… so many funny moments if you can make it through the film…
