The Complete Stax/Volt Singles: 1959-1968 Volume 1 Vinyl [3LP]

The vinyl debut of The Complete Stax/Volt Singles 1959-1968!

As one of two major mid-century R&B studios, Stax and Volt demonstrated the evolution of R&B in the U.S., delivering a comprehensive map of gritty, deep Southern soul. This set is a master class in deep southern soul.

The collection was remastered from the original Stax/Volt mono single masters. In a few cases, the tapes were lost, and original disc sources were used. Analog-to-digital mastering was done with a specially modified and restored Ampex 350 full-track mono machine with original tube electronics. All equipment in the transfer process was chosen specifically to recreate the Stax sound on today’s stereo systems without compromise.
