Peak Stax live and full of life, captured and lovingly preserved. The joy of these recordings come from how you can feel the excitement of the crowd, putting you right there in 5-4 Ballroom in LA '65 with Booker T & The MGs, David Porter, Wilson Pickett, William Bell, Rufus Thomas et al.
In 1965 in the face of social unrest, legendary Memphis label Stax Records put on two pulsating shows at the 5-4 Ballroom in Los Angeles, featuring Rufus Thomas, Booker T. and the M.G.’s, William Bell, Carla Thomas, Wilson Picket and more. 60 years later the recordings, newly mastered by Joe Tarantino, with lacquers cut by Jeff Powell at Take Out Vinyl, have been collected with a bonus set of performances recorded at Club Paradise, Memphis to form Stax Revue – Live In ’65!.
