[Booker T. & The MG's - Soul Clap '69 - 2:35] It's still time for me to wish a Happiest 50th Birthday to the legendary label Stax Records, founded by Jim Stewart and his partners. More info: Stax Records 50th.
The "Stax Sound" encompassing people such as Otis Redding, Rufus and Carla Thomas, Isaac Hayes, Mavis Staple and many more is now more alive than ever with new or forthcoming releases from artists like Angie Stone and Soulive or Mr Hayes himself.
