Stax’s inhouse band cut their debut album in 1962 and the anthemic title track still stands as a classic today. The trademark Hammond is all over this album as well as a tight Memphis groove. Amazing to think this album is now 50 years old! The CD features two bonus live tracks from 1965 – versions of “Green Onions” and “Can’t Sit Down”.
