191.The Complete Stax-Volt Soul Singles, Vol. 3: 1972-1975 by: Various January 02, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £100.36
Stax were one of the pre-eminent Soul labels, and while comparisons with Motown are obvious, there are significant differences. Stax was started by a White couple, Jim Stewart and Estelle Axton (hence Stax from the first 2 letters of each surname) and while it enjoyed it's reputation as the home of Southern Soul, and hence Black music, it was essentially a multi racial operation. In addition it did not distribute it's output, pre 1968. Motown was entirely Black owned and operated it's own distribution, with Berry Gordy controlling everything - and that means everything. Stax entered 1972 after enduring a traumatic period since 1968, when it was discovered they had no rights to the material that Atlantic had distributed for them. ... Read More:

This late album by the great Stax Records house band is a fine addition to their majestic catalogue. English listeners will note the title track from its use for many years as the theme music to BBC cricket coverage (it's odd how you expect the original version to fade away after thirty seconds). But there are other gems here: there's a remarkably soulful and jazzy version of 'Willow Weep For Me', with Jones on acoustic piano; the great 'Hang 'Em High', whose mixture of R&B and cowboy music was hugely influential on the Jamaican dub scene; a cool version of Hendrix's 'Foxy Lady', bringing Jimi back into the soul music camp; and a fascinatingly menacing version of 'Eleanor Rigby', full of ominous flattened fifths, the most successful cover I've ...
