Nice groove… and what a voice.

I didn’t remember this tune but I’m listening.

There are some hidden gems in those Pickett LP's.

Never heard this one B4.

Never heard this one B4.

I believe the entire LP was recorded at Stax and released on Atlantic. Steve Cropper helped in the writing of most of the songs on the LP. It sure does sound like Stax.

Thanks. Looks like half the tracks were done at Stax, and the others with Atlantic session guys. Maybe some tracks recorded at Fame. Great LP any way you look at it.

That’s the very rendition of the song that inspired Duane Allman to persue slide guitar.

The original, Piedmont style…

Never been in Houston, but Ted surely wants to get out of there.
