    I was 10 years old in 1967, and as much as I enjoyed The Motown Sound, there was something about that Stax, Volt, Atlantic sound coming out of my AM Transistor Radio that sounded more gritty, dirty, funkier than that other label. It made a young boy jump up and down on his bed to the point that his parents thought he was going into convulsions. No Ma and Pa I was just groovin!. Thank Heavens they didn't have Ritalin back then. That sound was infectious!...Still diggin and dancin to it 57 years later!
