Respect Yourself: The Stax Records Story (2007)

Between 1959 and 1975, Stax Records in Memphis, Tennessee released international chart-topping hits from artists including Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, Booker T. & the MG's, Rufus and Carla Thomas, the Staple Singers, Isaac Hayes, and even Richard Pryor and Jesse Jackson. Founded by a white conservative bank teller who played country fiddle music, Stax became the preeminent soul music label in America, and became identified with the civil rights movement of the 1960s and '70s. RESPECT YOURSELF documents the Stax label, its visionaries, and most of all, its music.

Great documentary. Excellent narration by Sam Jackson.

Standard rock-doc approach, but full of great stories.

Great documentary about the history of Stax Studios in Memphis. My interested was compounded since I had visited the museum, where the studio once stood a few years ago. I learned a lot about the various recording artists and the evolution and fall of the company. I didn't know that Booker T and MGs were the back-up band for many of the artists that became stars for Stax, and the relationship between Isaac Hayes and David Porter as a song writing team was interesting. The film also draws in some of the issues of the Civil Rights era and how the assassination of Dr. King in Memphis affected the future of Stax.

Not the best documentary, but anything with footage of Otis is fucking great.

Awesome movie. I am not a huge, huge fan of R&B, but I do like me some Green Onions, Isaac Hayes and Otis Redding, and it was interesting to watch the (seemingly universal) rise and fall of this creative powerhouse. It gets extra points for telling all of this within the context of the political times.
