Our Take

In the pantheon of soul music, Stax Records stands as a shining beacon of funky goodness, producing some of the most iconic tunes of the genre. And now, they're back with a collection of their finest instrumentals in the aptly titled "Stax Instrumentals."

From the moment the needle drops on this record, you are transported to a world where horns blare, drums thump, and guitars wail with reckless abandon. Each track is a masterclass in groove, showcasing the undeniable talent of the Stax house band in all its glory.

The album kicks off with the irresistible "Green Onions" by Booker T. & the MG's, a tune so infectious it'll have you dancing in your living room in no time. Other highlights include the sultry saxophone stylings on "Soul Finger" by The Bar-Kays, and the funky bassline of "Time is Tight" by Booker T. & the MG's.

But it's not all about the big hitters – hidden gems like "Hip Hug-Her" by Booker T. & the MG's and "Last Night" by The Mar-Keys show the depth and diversity of the Stax instrumental catalogue.

Overall, "Stax Instrumentals" is a must-have for any fan of soul music, showcasing the raw talent and infectious energy that made Stax Records a powerhouse in the industry. So put on your dancing shoes, grab a partner, and get ready to groove to the sweet sounds of Stax.
