@@curtisphilumalee1447Stax, Royal and American sound were know as the Memphis sound. Great studios where legendary artists recorded classic hit. FYI, Bruno Mars was a huge fan of the Memphis sound. American and Stax had been torn down but royal was a museum but still could record there so Bruno Mars recorded “ Uptown Funk “ there as a tribute to his love of the Memphis sound . Pickett recorded at Stax , late American, Aretha recorded at American after problems at muscle Schoals, Joe tex recorded at American , the Sweet Inspirations recorded at American , Dionne Warwicke too. And the greatest white soul singer recorded at American , namely Elvis Presley , btw the house band at American was all white including Reggie Young on guitar who had left Royal due to money issues. Stax had Booker t and MGs as house band , and artists Sam & Dave, Otis Redding, Carla Thomas, Isaac Hayes and Johnny Taylor among others . Royal recorded Ann Peeples, Denise Lasalle, and their most famous artist Al Green. Al Wanted Reggie Young on guitar but producer Wille Mitchell had cheated him out of money. Al was so determined that he sent his replacement Teeny Hodges to meet Reggie to teach him how Al wanted him to play. Hodges was so impressed with Reggie , he named his first son after him. The Memphis sound is the greatest sound in music history. Even Motown was envious of them. The funk sounds of the 70s were influenced by Memphis.

Sam & Dave soured me on Motown and drew me to the more raw soul at studios in the south. I felt Motown was too pop. Sam & Dave said their greatest memory is that they were the opening act for the Temptations when they toured Europe. They got about 20 minutes and The Temps got whatever time they wanted. At the first show as the duo left the stage the audience yelled for more , so much that it disrupted the Temps performance . This became regular that early in the tour it was obvious the European audiences came to see Sam& Dave more than the Temps. Thus the rest of the tour, the Temps opened the show for about twenty minutes and Sam& Dave got whatever time they needed. True story told by Sam Moore. The MGs backing band also said that the duo got the audience so worked up that they had to cancel balcony tickets as the audiences were stomping and dancing so much they feared the balcony would collapse.

Does anyone know who the keyboard player is? Both Booker T and Isaac Hayes contributed to the recording, but this performance (1974) was 8 years after the recording. Of course, Duck and Cropper had been on those 1966 recordings and obviously were still part of the same combo. I think Isaac was bald long before 1974, though. And we only have a short 'photo' of the keyboard player at 2:29. Anyone recognize him with certainty?

The dead giveaway that they're not truly in peak form anymore here, despite how great they still are, is the "dancing" at the end. Originally they would kick behind themselves at the knee on EVERY BEAT when the drums go double-time. Here, by comparison, they kinda look like Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake grinning at each other. This is what getting fucked without a kiss by Atlantic Records and having your generation's Ghandi basically get murdered at your clubhouse does to inhumanly entertaining men: It turns them into merely VERY entertaining men. But hey, anyone who's been through deep clinical depression knows they still won. It's all relative.
