Truck Turner [Original Soundtrack]

Released

Truck Turner was Hayes’ second soundtrack of 1974, and was another double album from perhaps the most prolific period of his career. Once again he put together a highly effective soundtrack that confidently wandered through swinging R’n’B, blissed out easy-jazz, down-home bluesy jams, pristine uptown soul and gutbucket funk. Mostly instrumental with just a handful of vocal tracks, its diversity was its strength, maintaining the listener’s attention across its seventy-one minutes. Widescreen instrumental soul.
