I want to see that. Been a serious student of Stax ever since I got the first singles box set back in the 90s. Actually, a friend of mine got it as a wedding present and I "borrowed" it for a decade.

Otis Redding was a big Beatles fan and listened to Sgt. Pepper over and over.

But of course the Sgt Pepper them is a total Stax song! The riff, the chord changes, the Cropper-like guitar stings.

I must say I do NOT miss the days of DJing with cassettes that had to be cued up perfectly before you stated the show. But I do miss the old Gates mixing board with the huge bakelite knobs. That's how I did "Flot's Spot" in the 90's at WFHB-Bloomington external-content.duckduckgo.com...

ha! nice. i'll tell you i miss my Kenwood amp. the Yamaha thing I have now has been durable but tinny in comparison. Kenwood lasted me a good 35 years and always sounded great.
