by plodding pacing and poorly-shot action sequences." Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune gave the film 1 star out of 4 and wrote, "The sound track occasionally misses lips, the dialog always is stilted, and the fight scenes look as tho they've been choreographed at half speed." Linda Gross of the Los Angeles Times wrote, "'Sheba, Baby' is a routine adventure story but thankfully the racism and violence are minimal. William Girdler's direction is listless and lethargic and there is an embarrassing lack of electricity between Miss Grier and Stoker." Soundtrack Barbara Mason sang vocals on the tracks "Sheba Baby," "I'm In Love With You," "A Good Man Is Gone," and "She Did It" on the soundtrack for the film. Releases Arrow Films released a restored Blu-ray edition of the film in 2016, which includes a new documentary ("Pam Grier: The AIP Years") and two audio commentaries.
