  • Shaft in Africa (1973) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #ShaftinAfrica
    Journeyman genre master John Guillermin (Tarzan's Greatest Adventure) steps in to direct the Shaft franchise's next entry with a big budget boost out of the exploitation zone and into Bond-style action-adventure. Subject to a most unorthodox recruitment, John Shaft (Richard Roundtree) is shanghaied from the Big Apple for a voyage to Mother Africa in order to tackle the evil of the returning slave trade. With an undercover assist in Ethiopia by the lovely Aleme (Vonetta McGee), Shaft goes native just in time to get captured by the slavers. Too bad for them! Shaft in Africa arrives ready for action-adventure reassessment thanks to this eye-popping, pristine 1080p HD presentation that serves up Shaft's intercontinental sensation as never before. 16x9 Letterbox.
    Directed By John Guillermin
    Starring Richard Roundtree, Frank Finlay, Vonetta McGee

      Yes all I listen to. Best recording. 60's was simple music with poor recordings and 80's was getting simple with a lot of digital sounds in music.

    I watched this sequence on VHS a million times because of the fantastic music. The title song 'Are You Man Enough', performed by the Four Tops was written by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter who also wrote and produced the Four Tops' great 1972 album 'Keeper Of The Castle'. They gave a very modern funky sound to the Motown legends.

    • @inthezone4123
      @inthezone4123 4 роки тому +3

      Kai, this tune is on the Main Street People album. Keeper of the Castle is also marvelous, especially if you can listen to it in quadraphonic sound. I really like the first two Shaft films, but for me this one takes a dive after he leaves the park. The theme song is the highlight of the film.

      I am 60 .
      I saw a few of the premiere episodes as a youth in Indiana , although I do not reme.ber them . I do remember brief segments . I watched them on a small television in my bedroom , we were upper middle-class white folks . My father joined in local civil rights activity in the 1970s .
      RIP , MR. RICHARD ROUNDTREE , you are an American hero , greatly revered by many surviving Americans of my age group .

    Interesting tie-in that the first Shaft movies' entire soundtrack was released in Quadraphonic sound, and the title track here "Are You Man Enough" was also released in Quad on the Four Tops' album "Main Street People". Although there next album "Meeting of the Minds" was also released in Quad, it had a song I wished had been used in a Shaft movie, titled "One Chain don't make no prison".
