It is a double album released on Stax Records' Enterprise label in 1971. The follow-up to Hayes' successful soundtrack for Shaft (also a double album), Black Moses features Hayes' version of The Jackson 5's hit single "Never Can Say Goodbye". Hayes' version became a hit in its own right, peaking at number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100. BackgroundIn addition to "Never Can Say Goodbye", other selections on Black Moses include covers of songs made popular by The Carpenters ("(They Long to Be) Close to You", Toussaint McCall ("Nothing Takes the Place of You"), The Friends of Distinction ("Going in Circles"), Dionne Warwick ("I'll Never Fall in Love Again"), and Little Johnny Taylor ("Part Time Love"). Hayes names Black Moses as one of his most personal works.[9] The very same sample of "Ike's Rap II" was used in four tracks at about the same time in the mid-1990s: Hell Is Around The Corner by Tricky, Glory Box by Portishead, Jorge da Capadócia and Salve both by Brazilian rap group Racionais MC's.[9] Ike's Rap II was also sampled by Alessia Cara in her song "Here" recorded in 2014. The album's title derives from Stax executive Dino Woodward's nickname for Hayes, which he bestowed upon the musician after comparing the effects of his music on black audiences to the leadership of the biblical figure Moses.[9] The then deeply Christian Hayes shied away from the nickname, finding it "sacrilegious",[10] although journalist Chester Higgins popularized the "Black Moses" nickname in an article he wrote on Hayes for Jet. Hayes came to see "Black Moses" as a symbol of black pride:
Larry Shaw, head of marketing and publicity at Stax, came up with the idea to name Hayes' LP Black Moses.[9] He also devised, with the assistance of Bar-Kays member Ron Gordon, a gatefold album cover design which unfolded into a poster-sized image of Hayes, dressed in biblical-inspired attire as "Black Moses".[9] Track listing{{Track listing| headline = Side one | title1 = Never Can Say Goodbye | writer1 = Clifton Davis | length1 = 5:07 | title2 = (They Long to Be) Close to You | writer2 = Burt Bacharach, Hal David | length2 = 8:58 | title3 = Nothing Takes the Place of You | writer3 = Toussaint McCall, Alan Robinson | length3 = 5:29 | title4 = Man's Temptation | writer4 = Curtis Mayfield | length4 = 4:59 | total_length = 24:33 }}{{Track listing | headline = Side two | title5 = Never Gonna Give You Up | writer5 = Kenneth Gamble, Leon Huff, Jerry Butler | length5 = 5:47 | title6 = Medley: "Ike's Rap II" / "Help Me Love | writer6 = Hayes, Johnny Baylor, Mickey Gregory, Luther Ingram, Tommy Tate | length6 = 7:31 | title7 = Need to Belong to Someone | writer7 = Curtis Mayfield | length7 = 5:15 | title8 = Good Love | writer8 = Gregory, Hayes | length8 = 5:15 | total_length = 23:48 }}{{Track listing | headline = Side three | title9 = Medley: "Ike's Rap III" / "Your Love is So Doggone Good | writer9 = Hayes, Difosco Ervin, Rudy Love | length9 = 9:15 | title10 = For the Good Times | writer10 = Kris Kristofferson | length10 = 5:20 | title11 = I'll Never Fall in Love Again | writer11 = Burt Bacharach, Hal David | length11 = 5:02 | total_length = 19:37 }}{{Track listing | headline = Side four | title12 = Part-Time Love | writer12 = Clay Hammond | length12 = 8:30 | title13 = Medley: "Ike's Rap IV" / "A Brand New Me | writer13 = Isaac Hayes, Kenneth Gamble, Thom Bell, Jerry Butler | length13 = 9:40 | title14 = Going in Circles | writer14 = Jerry Peters, Anita Poree | length14 = 7:02 | total_length = 25:12 }} Note: the 1989 CD release, distributed by Fantasy Records, scrambles the playing order: Side One is paired with Side Four on disc one, while Side Two is paired with Side Three on disc two.
