BaadAsssss Cinema

As a compilation of blaxploitation soundtrack selections, Baadasss Cinema certainly gets the job done. Mixing standards like Curtis Mayfield's "Pusherman" with welcome obscurities like Lonnie Liston Smith's "Expansions," the set provides superb, classic funk and soul recorded between 1971 and 1976 from often-neglected sources.
