Released on Friday was a compilation of no fewer than 146 demos from
the legendary Stax label. "Written In Their Soul: The Stax Songwriter Demos" contains 140 tracks never previously released including
songwriter demos of some of Stax biggest recordings (e.g. "634-5789
(Soulsville, USA)", "If You’re Ready (Come Go With Me)", "Woman to
Woman" and “Respect Yourself"). The compilation is available digitally
and as a set of 7 CDs.
The first three discs contain demos by the Stax songwriters that were
recorded and released by Stax artists on one of the Stax family of
labels (Stax, Volt, Enterprise, We Produce, Koko, Respect,
etc.).
The fourth disc contains demos by the Stax songwriters that were
recorded and released on record labels OTHER than the Stax family of
labels (Atlantic, Decca, Hi, Chimneyville, etc.).
The final three discs contain demos by the Stax songwriters that were
never released anywhere. Including songs from legendary songwriters
such as William Bell, Steve Cropper, Eddie Floyd, Bettye Crutcher and
many more.
We couldn't possibly post the full set so have cherry picked some we
consider the best. Your selections may differ so you can investigate the
full compilation HERE.
Thanks to Yves Lambert for getting this one over.
