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 decadeโ€™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 โ€œYou Donโ€™t Know Like I Knowโ€ (Sam & Dave), โ€œRespectโ€ (Otis Redding), โ€œA Womanโ€™s Loveโ€ (Carla Thomas), โ€œJump Backโ€ (Rufus Thomas), โ€œGrab This Thing (Part 1)โ€ (The Mar-Keys), โ€œSatisfactionโ€ (Otis Redding), โ€œSugar Sugarโ€ (The Mad Lads), โ€œKnock On Woodโ€ (Eddie Floyd), โ€œOh, Pretty Womanโ€ (Albert King), and โ€œJingle Bellsโ€ (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 todayโ€™s stereo systems without compromise.
