He was a pusher that became a preacher.
A gangster pimp serving soup from the trunk
of his Coup Deville. A mutant cross between
Robin Hood and Friar Tuck. Everyman, our man
on the street, Brotherman. Continuing a tradition
that began with Sweet SweetbackÆs Baadasssss
Song, and culminated with Shaft and Superfly,
Brotherman was a blaxploitation film set to hit
screens in 1975.
Prior to the script being finished, the producers
commissioned an original soundtrack to be performed
by The Final Solution, a fledgling vocal group from
ChicagoÆs west side.
The ten-song album draws deeply from Curtis MayfieldÆs
well, certainly, but the proof in the pudding is Carl WolfolkÆs
unique guitar style û a combination of flamenco and funk
û that stabs around the four part harmonies.
In classic Numero fashion, before even one foot of film
was shot, the plug was pulled and the movie was
cancelled. Dragged around for 30 years by songwriter
and arranger Wolfolk, the tapes of his lifeÆs work have
finally been mixed, and the soundtrack album has been
augmented to include two orchestrated instrumentals
intended for the film. Having no stills from the film to
work with, the Numero Group tasked MinneapolisÆ
Burlesque of North America to paint a cover that could
withstand the scrutiny of any blaxploitation poster geek.
The deluxe single disc set is housed in our standard
slipcase, with a plush booklet detailing the known history
of the film and the group that created the music.
