LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Feeling overwhelmed by the very thought of the three volumes of the complete Stax Soul singles? Well this is just the ticket for you then, the first box set to tell the whole Stax story with all the big hits, a few tasty rarities and the greatest live Soul show ever to round it off. Notes from Rob Bowman, Greil Marcus, Charlie Gillett and original Stax press person Deanie Parker.
