The Mar-Keys simply were Booker T. & The MG's combined with the Memphis Horns.

The Bar-Kays were Otis Redding's backing band.

The others probably used different combinations of the Mar-Keys musicians I know that Albert King did for his lone Stax LP.

The original Mar-Keys had a different organist. Difficult to identify who was, in fact, on all the Mar-Keys records because the personnel was whoever was hanging around the studio on the day. The CD issue of the 2 LPs "Last night" and "Do the Popeye with the Mar-keys" has what info there is on the early Mar-key's sessions, but it is, I think, from the memories of some of the musicians involved - no records.

I was wondering who bands/musicians such as The Triumphs, Eddie Kirk, Billy & the King Bees, the Vardells, the Cobras, the Baracudas, Sir Isaac & the Doo Dads (obviously Hayes but plus who?) all were. I've never come across any of them in my extensive purchases of Stax singles in the '60s.

08 SOUL FINGER – BOOKER T. & MG’S

09 KNUCKLEHEAD – THE BAR –KAYS

Wasn't SOUL FINGER by the BAR-KAYS, too? At least I have a single of this.

When I bought the Bar-Kays lone Volt LP later I noticed that the LP had a different take of KNUCKLEHEAD!

Actually, Soul Finger was done by the Bar-Kays (written by James Alexander)

Vol 1 - Disc 7 - Track 20 from the boxset and, so, that's a misprint methinks.

Rob Bowman's book is essential for nearly all things Stax/Volt.

The boxsets have nice thick booklets too

with all kinds of details and stories.

Got 18 of the 28 discs loaded up.

Goin to bed...tomorrow morn: the last 10 discs. ;)

How many Stax 1960's singles do you own?

Not nearly as many as I've bought. When my mother ran away to sea in '67, I had to move into a bedsit and there was no room for my singles, so I gave maybe more than a thousand away! I guess I must have about 20-30, without going through them. I have 33 albums.
