Just unbelievable the crap going on now... Crazies all coming out.
Never heard this version of "Miss Your Water" .. It's such a great song if you can sing, it's hard to miss with it.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:33am

I think that Otis Clay's version is the best, even surpassing the William Bell original.

I wish Stax would put out a box set of instrumental tracks of all the great hits.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:11am
Cal Zone!:

Michael Shelley was talking about a new Stax box yesterday
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:11am
Funky16Corners:

The 1968 one?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:12am
doctorjazz:

Have the older Stax boxes, great stuff !
  11:12am
Dean:

Heh, I just emailed Michael Shelley, because the context of his discussion was a record by Dino & Doc. He queried whether or not the group was predominantly Black or white. Very little written about the one-single duo, but via Discogs I traced one of the songwriters to The Fabulous Dinos, a Black group.

Yes, the 1968 box.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:13am
Cal Zone!:

I think so....its a newer collection and it includes everything Stax including all of the weird sub-label stuff.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:13am
doctorjazz:

Of course, if you have all these 45's you just buy your own box.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:16am
Cal Zone!:

The original Stax Box is fantastic. A treasure trove!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:16am
Jeff Ash:

All good, Larry. I also learned of "Wrap It Up" from the Fabulous Thunderbirds.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:16am

This is where it originated!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:31am
doctorjazz:

Or was this first?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:32am
doctorjazz:

Ah, beat me!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:32am
