I have a CD of numerous different songs on it. And Shaft is one of them. My 13 year old son and his friends always make me blast it in the car. It's funny, they really get into singing it. It'll be sad to tell them he passed away. They also all have Johnny Cash CD's...go figure.

One of my all times favorites. What a talented man with that deep, soulful voice.

Seems like we are getting shocking news of unexpected deaths a lot lately.


Condolences to his family, friends and his many fans.

I used to die laughing whenever I heard the "Chocolate salty balls" song. Now before some moderator bans me, the song is about candied chocolate balls. You just put em in your mouth and suck em!
