Stax Vol. 5 - The Complete Singles (Remaster)
Release Date: 06/13/2025
Format: 3 X LP
Label: Atlantic
Release type: Remastered Triple Vinyl LP Pressing.
As one of two major mid-century R&B studios, Stax and Volt demonstrated the evolution of R&B in the U.S., delivering a comprehensive map of gritty, deep Southern soul. This set is a master class in deep southern soul.
The collection was remastered from the original Stax/Volt mono single masters. In a few cases, the tapes were lost, and original disc sources were used. Analog-to-digital mastering was done with a specially modified and restored Ampex 350 full-track mono machine with original tube electronics. All equipment in the transfer process was chosen specifically to recreate the Stax sound on today's stereo systems without compromise.
