The Story Behind: Isaac Hayes - Hot Buttered Soul, Ep. 221
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Isaac Hayes was a back-of-house songwriter who got thrust to the front of a struggling record label called Stax Records. The guys are live together in the room and talk about 70s funk innovations, massive amounts of confidence, and Phil's spoken word album coming in 2026.
