Summary:
The story of the King of Soul, told through every 45 he cut during his legendary reign at Stax Records. The sound that influenced The Beatles and the Stones. The songs that later became defining hits for Aretha and The Black Crowes. The grooves sampled by Public Enemy and Jay-Z & Kanye. Every single, A-side and B, is heard in its original, booming mono mix. Hear the way he first ripped through transistor radios, jukeboxes and portable record players on his way to changing rock and soul forever.
