Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes is dead. He was 65. Aside from this connection, he was a pretty cool dude.

Samuel L. Jackson better watch his back. The grim reaper seems to have an interest in "Soul Men."

Mr. Hayes had health problems in recent years but had continued to tour and work occasionally in film (he had a role in “Soul Men,” a comedy set for release in November and starring Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac, the comedian who died Saturday).
