Definitive Collection of Stax Records' Singles to Be
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: DEFINITIVE COLLECTION OF STAX RECORDS’ SINGLES TO BE REISSUED Two volumes, due out December 16, 2014 and Spring 2015, cover 1968-1975. Volumes to be made available digitally for first time. LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Concord Music Group and Stax Records are proud to announce the digital release and physical reissue of two comprehensive box set titles: The Complete Stax/Volt Soul Singles, Vol. 2: 1968-1971 and The Complete Stax/Volt Soul Singles, Vol. 3: 1972-1975. Originally released in 1993 and 1994, respectively, these two compilations will be re-released back into the physical market in compact and sleek new packaging. Each set includes full-color booklets with in-depth essays by Stax historian and compilations co- producer Rob Bowman. The volumes feature stalwart Stax R&B artists including Isaac Hayes, the Staple Singers, Rufus Thomas, Johnnie Taylor, Carla Thomas, the Bar-Kays and William Bell, as well as bluesmen Little Milton, Albert King and Little Sonny, and “second generation” Stax hitmakers like Jean Knight, the Soul Children, Kim Weston, the Temprees, and Mel & Tim. Many of the tracks included in these collections will be made available digitally for the very first time. The story of the great Memphis soul label Stax/Volt can be divided into two distinct eras: the period from 1959 through the beginning of 1968, when the company was distributed by Atlantic and was developing its influential sound and image (chronicled in acclaimed 9-CD box set The Complete Stax/Volt Singles 1959-1968, released by Atlantic in 1991); and the post-Atlantic years, from May 1968 through the end of 1975, when Stax/Volt began its transition from a small, down-home enterprise to a corporate soul powerhouse.

Down on Beale Street
BLUES CITY CULTURAL CENTER Arts for a Better Way of Life Down on Beale Street Some of the most iconic symbols of American music come to life in DOWN ON BEALE STREET, a lively musical depicting notable musicians and the culture that gave birth to the blues. Man, the lead character, guides an aspiring blues singer through the lives of W.C. Handy, Bessie Smith, B.B. King and other legendary artists who left their historic footprints on Beale Street. Written by Levi Frazier Jr in 1972, DOWN ON BEALE STREET has been presented on numerous stages in Memphis and at the Richard Allen Culture Center in New York. It was first performed in 1973 at LeMoyne-Owen College during the W.C. Handy Festival. In 2016, it was performed at Minglewood Hall for over 2,000 students. Over the years, it has been viewed by over 100,000 people through live performances or public broadcasting. In African-American Theatre: An Historical & Critical Analysis, theatre historian and critic Samuel Hay described DOWN ON BEALE STREET as a musical revue that “highlights the denizens and the good times of such Beale Street spots as the Palace Theatre in Memphis. The significance of all of these musicals-with-messages is that they finally achieve what Dubois was seeking when he asked Cole in 1909 to write protest musical comedies for Broadway.” 1 Lesson Overview and Background Information As a music genre, the blues was originated by African Americans in the Deep South. Rooted in African rhythms, spirituals and field songs, it reflected the hard lives and misery experienced by blacks living in a segregated and disenfranchised society.

Transforming Southern Soul: an Examination of Stax Fax and Stax
Transforming Southern Soul: An Examination of Stax Fax and Stax Records During the Late 1960s Chandler Vaught Rhodes Institute for Regional Studies 2017 Vaught 2 Special Thanks to Al Bell Deanie Parker Jeff Kollath Jennifer Campbell And Dr. Charles Hughes Vaught 3 In the early 1960s Deanie Parker moved from Ironton, Ohio to Memphis, Tennessee in order to finish high school and be with her mother, who was living in the city at the time. She attended Hamilton High School, where future star Carla Thomas would also graduate from, and became the lead female vocalist for a student band.1 Encouraged by the school’s glee club instructor, the group took part in a Beale Street music competition for which the first place prize was an opportunity to audition for Stax Records. “And we won that prize,” Parker recalls, “So that was how I managed to get into Stax Records and to learn what it was they did in that old Capitol Theater that had been converted into a recording company. Which was behind Satellite Record Shop on McLemore at College.”2 Though Deanie would not go on to become a hit musician, she would become an integral part of Stax Records. In 1965 Jim Stewart, the president of Stax, hired Deanie as the company’s first publicist. The ultimate goal of her job was to package and advertise the product (the songs and artists of Stax) to both the DJs who played their music and the general public as a whole.3 In the fall of 1968 a new marketing tool was developed that would aid her in this endeavor, Stax’s very own magazine called Stax Fax.

Site 1: Ellis Auditorium Corner of Poplar and Front Streets
Site 1: Ellis Auditorium Corner of Poplar and Front Streets Ellis Auditorium was located in downtown Memphis on the corner of Poplar and Front Streets. When the 12,000-seat auditorium opened in 1924, Memphis had a venue for movies, music, and graduations. Elvis Presley, who attended high school in Memphis and recorded his first songs at Sun Studio on Union Avenue in 1954, played his first big homecoming concert at Ellis on February 6, 1955. Black and white Memphians alike attended Elvis’s sold-out show to see the local star perform his unique mix of Country, Blues and R&B music, but they could not comingle. African Americans used a separate side entrance and sat in a separate balcony. WWW.TEACHROCK.ORG Site 2: Currie’s Club Tropicana 1331 Thomas Street Photos: Ticket for Bobby Blue Bland at Currie’s; Images from inside Currie’s, Memphis Tri-State Defender, 1955 The downtown scene on Beale Street is the historical hotspot of Memphis’ music, but tucked away in the northern part of the city is Thomas Street: a respectable hub in its own right of blues, jazz, rock and roll, and soul (and the former stomping grounds of artist and producer Isaac Hayes when he was a student at Manassas High School). Currie’s Club Tropicana was located at 1331 Thomas Street. It was a noted venue of the national “chitlin’ circuit”: clubs that featured African-American performers and catered to a black audience. The most prominent black artists of the day played Currie’s: Fats Domino, Louis Armstrong, and Ray Charles among them.
