I have the Stax 45 lifted from that soundtrack album ... the title track was always a fave of mine .........

Can't play the actual MVP theme track. It's on Youtube but won't play for us in the UK ...

I was thinking this was an unreleased project recently discovered. I have the 2 CD release [[paired with van Peebles's Don't Play Us Cheap cast album). What would really be exciting would be a re-release of Ain't Supposed to Die a Natural Death.

trying to see if it post & play via here ...

Thanks for sharing the news about the Sweet Sweetback soundtrack. Stax Records [[via Concord & Rhino) is launching a 60th Anniversary celebration for the label and this is one of the rarest recording in the Stax catalog.
