Isaac Hayes Tapestries
Description: Thanks to songs he and partner David Porter wrote for Sam & Dave (“Soul Man”) and others, Isaac Hayes was already a future Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee in the mid-‘60s. But the in-demand Stax Records session man didn’t stop there. His sonorous bass, shaved head and gold chains shook up the R&B status quo with the 1969 arrival of seminal debut album Hot Buttered Soul. Eschewing the standard three-minute single for 12-minute orchestral treatises (“Walk on By”) and similarly lengthy monologues (“By the Time I Get to Phoenix”), Hayes paved the way for disco and rap. His crowning achievement: the Academy Award-winning soundtrack for 1971’s Shaft.
Description: A retro Memphis soul tribute built around the unmistakable cool of Isaac Hayes—dark shades, heavy grooves, cinematic strings and larger-than-life presence. Designed like a forgotten early-'70s soul-show print, with vinyl geometry, warm gold tones and deep vintage linework made to stand strong on white and light-colored shirts.
