This is all what I found out about your listing. Someone please help
me out about "Birth Of Shaft", which a song that I 've never heard of.
As far as I know, the Millie's hit song "It Harts So Good" was not used
on any blaxploitation movies. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Song: Artist: Movie:
Superfly Curtis Mayfield Superfly
Sweetback's Theme Earth, WInd and Fire Sweet Sweetbacks Bad Asssong
Down & Out in N.Y. City James Brown Black Caesar
It Hurts So Good Millie Jackson not used in a movie(?)
Slick Willie Hutch The Mack (incl.
"Brother's Gonna Work It Out")
Be Thankful For What William DeVaughn not used in a
movie(?) (A Philly Classic! BTW)
You've Got

Are You Man Enough Four Tops ? Shaft In Africa
