The Cecil Holmes Soulful Sounds’ The Black Motion Picture Experience offers a focused listening journey through acoustic textures inspired by classic soul and film themes. This 1973 album arranges familiar pieces like "Across 110th Street," "Superfly," and "Freddie's Dead" into a compact ensemble setting that invites deeper attention to the subtle interplay of instruments. The album stands out as a thoughtful homage to soul soundtracks, allowing the listener to explore these well-known themes without the usual cinematic clutter—proof that even a soundtrack can enjoy a quiet moment in the spotlight. This vinyl pressing from 1973 presents the album on a single LP, ideal for those who appreciate a vintage touch without chasing vintage pressing specifics. The record is graded VG+, meaning it carries the usual light surface marks and paper scuffs common for its age but nothing that should interfere significantly with playback. It’s a solid choice for collectors who want a listenable copy that balances period character with practical usability. After all, not every record needs to be flawless to deliver its story—sometimes a little wear just means it’s been around the block a few times.

Sound samples are included to help you get a feel for the music, but they may not always match the exact pressing or track version of the record listed. When in doubt, trust the photos and pressing information - that's the actual record you're buying.
