The Mar-Keys: Last Night - Do The Pop-Eye (CD)

(2014/Soul Jam) 29 tracks.
Digitally remastered two-fer containing a pair of albums from the Soul act plus five bonus tracks. With their funky, sophisticated grooves, The Mar-Keys remain one of the most important groups ever to emerge from the Memphis music scene. As the first house band for the legendary Stax label (along with Booker T. & The MG's), they backed giants such as Otis Redding, William Bell, Rufus & Carla Thomas, and Sam & Dave, among others. During the Sixties they appeared on some of the greatest records in soul history. The band included such outstanding instrumentalists as guitarist and composer Steve Cropper, bassist Donald 'Duck' Dunn, organist Booker T. Jones, and trumpeter Wayne Jackson. This quintessential release contains The Mar-Keys' first two LPs issued under their own name, presented here in their entirety: The influential debut Last Night! (1961), and the follow-up Do The Pop-Eye With The Mar-Keys (1962). Originally released by the Atlantic label, both sensational albums have been remastered and packaged together on this edition, which also includes 5 bonus tracks from the same period.

The Mar-Keys

The Mar-Keys, originally known as the Royal Spades, had a Top Ten hit with their first disc, 'Last Night' (Satellite), written and arranged by Chips Moman, in 1961. Othei, smaller, hits included 'Morning After', Popeye Stroll' and, in 1966, 'Philly Dog'. All were for the Stax Company. The first of many Mar-Keys line-ups contained Packy Axton (tenor sax), Don Nix (baritone sax), Wayne Jackson (trumpet), Jerry Lee Smith (organ), Steve Cropper (guitar), Don 'Duck' Dunn (bass) and Terry Johnson (drums).

All were white boys, two of whom (Cropper and Dunn) also played in the MGs with black musicians Booker T and Al Jackson, who in turn went on to play in both groups. As staff musicians at the Stax-Volt studios, the Mar-Keys were at the centre of the Memphis soul boom of the mid-Sixties, pro-viding the accompaniment to hits by Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, Wilson Pickett et al. Axton subsequently formed the Packers ('Hole In The Wall' was a hit on Pure Soul in 1965), while Wayne Jackson, Andrew Love (tenor sax) and Floyd Newman (baritone sax) played in both the Mar-Keys and the famed sextet, the Memphis Horns.
