Reviews :
The vinyl debut of The Complete Stax/Volt Singles 1959-1968!
As one of two major mid-century R&B studios, Stax and Volt demonstrated the evolution of R&B in the U.S., delivering a comprehensive map of gritty, deep Southern soul. This set is a master class in deep southern soul.
By the decade’s midpoint, the collective roster had indisputably hit its stride. VOLUMES 3 and 4 effectively capture lightning in a bottle, showcasing these artists at the height of their powers with essential cuts like “You Don’t Know Like I Know” (Sam & Dave), “Respect” (Otis Redding), “A Woman’s Love” (Carla Thomas), “Jump Back” (Rufus Thomas), “Grab This Thing (Part 1)” (The Mar-Keys), “Satisfaction” (Otis Redding), “Sugar Sugar” (The Mad Lads), “Knock On Wood” (Eddie Floyd), “Oh, Pretty Woman” (Albert King), and “Jingle Bells” (Booker T. & the MGs), among many others.
The collection was remastered from the original Stax/Volt mono single masters. In a few cases, the tapes were lost, and original disc sources were used. Analog-to-digital mastering was done with a specially modified and restored Ampex 350 full-track mono machine with original tube electronics. All equipment in the transfer process was chosen specifically to recreate the Stax sound on today’s stereo systems without compromise.
