There are so many Stax Recording Artists mentioned under many, many more that were not named. Co-Owner, Al Bell began signing many more artists such as The Dramatics, Frederick Knight & The Soul Children. Even Rufus Thomas, one of the first artists signed to the label, enjoyed a popular resurgence with a string of hits in the late 1960s/early 1970s. I play a lot of Stax, Volt, Arco, and early Atlantic Records including Chess Artists on my #houseworkbluesshow on https://majic108f m.com Check out the links below:
