It's hard for anything to top "Walk on By", but Hayes hardly needs to worry about that when his second tier includes songs like "Do Your Thing", an essential slab of languid bongo funk, the throbbing, horn-soaked instrumental "Disco Connection", and "Hyperbolicsyllabic-sesquadelymistic", a nine-minute funk crawl capped by an out-of-this world piano solo that Public Enemy later snipped a portion of for the basis of "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos".
It's actually a little jarring sitting next to the plaintive live version of the traditional gospel song "His Eye Is on the Sparrow. There are only a few places in the two-plus hours of music here where not everything works. The need to edit down a few of the longer tracks is unfortunate, but understandable if anything they could have lopped the intro of "I Stand Accused" , and anyone who wants the full-length versions of "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" or "Do Your Thing" can simply scoop up Hot-Buttered Soul or the Shaft soundtrack-- you'll want to own them anyway.
