	Rufus and Carla Thomas
		In the glorious decade and a half of sound that was Stax in the '60s and early '70s, Carla Thomas was the Queen of Memphis Soul.
		Thomas was already a professional entertainer in the mid-'30s, when he was a comedian with the Rabbit Foot Minstrels.
		Thomas and his daughter Carla would become the first stars for the Stax label, for whom they recorded a duet in 1959, "'Cause I Love You" (when the company was still known as Satellite).

	Review - Carla Thomas: Gee Whiz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		When 18 year old Carla Thomas recorded the single "Gee Whiz" for Jim Stewart's Satellite Records, she set in motion the development of what many (including myself) consider the greatest soul label of all time, Memphis' legendary Stax Records.
		As the daughter of local legend Rufus Thomas, she had been involved in the business since childhood and was a veteran performer by the time she made her solo breakthrough.
		The rest of the album is a collection of jazz, pop and R&B standards (including one penned by Rufus himself), but Carla Thomas managed to put an individual stamp on each one by virtue of her remarkable pipes.

		Thomas subsequently remained an integral part of the Stax line-up throughout the label's life span, which ended in 1976.
		True, Thomas delivers a steady dependability, albeit with a lack of urgency that allowed the eruptive powers of Redding and Sam and Dave to cast an obstructive shadow.
		The fact that she retired from recording soon after Stax folded, opting for the club circuit, assured her place in the label's history but also closed the door on future endeavors that may have helped elevate her standing.

		Even before it was known as Stax, when the name on the door was "Satellite," this young girl made her talent felt and really put the label on the map..
		Carla's early records defined the Stax sound and I was thrilled to have played a part in breaking that same ground, playing in the band behind so many amazing artists.

	Carla Thomas \| Gee Whiz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A few years earlier, Carla Thomas would have her own hit record while just barely out of high school and in return would put the small independent Stax label on the musical map.
		Daughter of Memphis R&B legend Rufus Thomas, Carla’s Top 10 charting “Gee Whiz” has been available on various compilations, but this is the first time the entire album of the same name has been reissued.
		While some of the tracks sport dated strings and background vocals, it’s Carla’s honest and mellifluous approach that shines through, and without the sort of overblown histrionics that plague more than a number of today’s pop idols.

		Otis Redding never recorded a lighter, more purely entertaining record than King & Queen, a collection of duets with Stax labelmate Carla Thomas.
		In all likelihood inspired by a series of popular duets recorded by Marvin Gaye -- indeed, "It Takes Two," Gaye's sublime collaboration with Kim Weston, is covered here -- the record serves no greater...
		Redding and Thomas enjoy an undeniable chemistry, and they play off each other wonderfully; while sparks fly furiously throughout King and Queen, the album's highlight is the classic "Tramp,"where their battle of the sexes reaches its fever pitch in supremely witty fashion.
