Experience the unmistakable sound of 1970s blaxploitation cinema with Truck Turner (Original Soundtrack) by Isaac Hayes. Originally released in 1974, this iconic soundtrack combines deep funk, soulful vocals and cinematic orchestration, showcasing the musical style that made Hayes one of the defining artists of the era.

Starring Isaac Hayes alongside Yaphet Kotto, Truck Turner follows a bounty hunter navigating the dangerous world of Los Angeles' criminal underworld. Hayes brings the film to life with a powerful blend of gritty funk grooves, soulful melodies and dramatic instrumental passages.

The soundtrack features 17 tracks, including the memorable “Main Title 'Truck Turner'”, the funky “House of Beauty”, “Blue's Crib” and the extended instrumental “Pursuit of the Pimpmobile”. The album also includes soulful vocal performances such as “You're in My Arms Again” and “We Need Each Other, Girl”, balancing its hard-hitting funk with moments of smooth, expressive soul.

Featuring arrangements and conducting by Isaac Hayes and Johnny Allen, the music is performed with the Isaac Hayes Movement, Hot, Buttered & Soul and the Memphis Symphony. The result is a richly textured soundtrack that moves between orchestral drama, jazz-inflected grooves and classic Memphis soul.

This 50th anniversary edition is presented as a limited translucent purple double LP in a gatefold sleeve, released through Enterprise, Varèse Sarabande and Craft Recordings.
