Memphis Boys: Story Of American Studios / Various Memphis Boys: Story Of American Studios / Various CD

UK collection, an musical overview of Memphis' legendary American Studios spanning the years 1965 to 1972. The American Studio's sound is just as much a part of Memphis' musical fabric as those of Stax and Hi (and just as recognizable). Among those who helped make that sound are guitarists Reggie Young and Bobby Womack, bass player Tommy Cogbill, keyboard men Bobby Emmons and Bobby Wood, drummer Gene Chrisman and songwriters Dan Penn, Spooner Oldham, Wayne Carson Thompson and studio-founder Chips Moman - legends one and all. Ace.
