I Stand Accused by Isaac Hayes from The Isaac Hayes Movement
I Stand Accused by Isaac Hayes from The Isaac Hayes Movement. If some cynics chimed that Hot Buttered Soul had been a fluke, Isaac Hayes easily repeated the success of that 1969 breakthrough for symphonic soul with this 1970 masterpiece. Like its predecessor, it contains four long songs and became a massive seller, peaking at No. 8 on Billboard s pop album chart. Highlights include Hayes s soulfully simmering renditions of Jerry Butler s I Stand Accused and the Beatles Something, the latter featuring the serpentine jazz violin work of John Blair. Stax Records historian Rob Bowman has called Hayes s vocal on I Stand Accused his finest moment as a singer and that song s interplay between Pat Lewis s background vocal line and Michael Toles s circular guitar figure pure alchemical 1.
