This CD includes all the singles released between 1962-63 and starts off with the evergreen`Green Onions' by Booker T & the MG's. This raucous dance groove was Stax's first big cross-over hit reaching no.3 on the Pop chart and no.1 on the R&B chart. Recorded by Steve Cropper, Al Jackson jr, Booker T and Lewis Steinberg, who were effectively the Stax house band, this was destined to be the flip to `Behave Yourself' (also included here). This was the first of what was to be a decade of great instrumentals and 14 chart hits (another three of which appear on this volume, including `Chinese Checkers').
