    I worked at Stax for a while in 1969. One correction that I need to make is Rufus and Carla Thomas were not brother and sister. They were father and daughter. I really enjoyed this.

    The theme from Shaft is the Best. Isaac Hayes, Otis Redding, Booker T and the MG’s and on and on. So talented and glad this has been preserved. Another great vlog. This should introduce this amazing music to your younger viewers.

    Great one!!! I was fortunate to be a teenaged in the 60’s growing up with this great music! My love of music I passed on to my oldest daughter. I always had the steroid playing when at home, singing and dancing while raising my babies. Great music ! Thank you for taking me along and a walk down memory lane!

    Just when I thought you couldn't top yesterday's vlog you come along with all the music I listened to growing up and continue to listen to. Johnnie Taylor has always been a real favorite of mine. Was glad to see him included. His daughter Tasha Taylor is a fantastic singer too. She looks so much like her father.

      @@henknuwolt6272 The Elvis vlogs are hard for me to STOP mentioning little things.I've been holding my breath and hoping I won't get blocked, so I have to keep my Elvis addiction under control, but this was really something I was so shocked to see that Elvis wasn't mentioned anyplace...not by Jordan, I mean, by Stax...Jordan is almost untouchable in my books. He is the best for vlogging and I know he loves Elvis, but he can't be aware of everything that someone like me is..since I've been a fan since the age of 12.. I knew what toothpaste he used..I knew so much and it just continued all my life, but I actually started questioning myself during this vlog. Could it be that I'm so old now that I'm THAT confused? NO..DEFINITELY NOT!

    A lot of good videos you’ve put out lately and a whole lot of good music came out of this place. Elvis had some great recording sessions here as well. IMO some of the best music was in the late 60’s to mid 70’s. Another interesting place with a lot of musical history is The Record Plant up in Sausalito. Last time I was there is was shuttered but heard it was up for sale and hopefully it will be turned into a museum. You can literally feel the vibes from the front of the building just knowing that Fleetwood Mac recorded Rumours there, along with so many other albums from so many great artists.

    Elvis recorded there from 1973-75. Promised Land was one that people might know if they've watched Men In Black where its played on 8 track in the car. That tape was actually recorded at Stax. They used to have something about Elvis there but didn't see anything.

    Booker T and the MG's had a Calypso style hit that was used as a BBC intro for TMS - test match special. This theme tune is still used today on BBC World Service and Radio's 4 and 5 whenever cricket is Broadcasted live.
