I found that album, along with an original pressing of The Velvet Underground & Nico and Coven's Witchcraft (Destroys Minds and Reaps Souls) in my grandmother's basement when I was a kid. My fucking grandmother.

Salut! Grandmother!

You officially have the most kick-ass grandma of all time.

Damn sad to hear about Isaac Hayes. When I was a wee tyke, saw him on the Academy Awards the year he was nominated for best song for Shaft. Seeing him generate that killer groove with his band while draped in a shirt made of gold chains redefined my wee tyke definition of BADASS, and it has stayed with me to this day. Not a bad actor, either, he was funny as hell in I'm Gonna Git You, Sucka. I hope you escape the pesky thetans on your way to the next level, Black Moses.

Call me callous, but I can't say I'm all that busted up over a Scientologist going home to Xenu.

I once gave an Isaac Hayes 8-track tape to a guy I worked with at a pizza place. He was really into Isaac Hayes. He said "Thank you, man. Thank you."

Alan Keyes?

He's a soul, man.

The bad news just seems to keep coming. This sucks.

RIP, Mr. Hayes.

He was supposed to make a new record for Stax. I wonder if it ever got recorded. Sad. He was such a great arranger and composer. I could give a shit about his religious beliefs. That doesn't change my opinion of him.

I hope your Hot Buttered Soul rests in peace, Mr Hayes.

I will now listen to your version of "Walk On By", and marvel at it as I always do...

As far as I understand, Trey and Matt Park did that hatchet job on Scientology, and Isaac Hayes told `em both to fuck straight off. In response Matt and Trey used previously recorded Chef lines, cut them up to make him into a brainwashed pederast, and they killed his character to be replaced by Darth Chef...

...which scares the living fuck out of me. Darth Hayes. Fuck.
