I just found out that this past Monday, #JimStewart, founder of #staxrecords passed away at the age of 92 (we all should be so lucky). There's so much I could say about the power and influence of Stax records, I don't even know where to begin. I'll just post these instead:

Stax Records, along with Chess, Specialty, and Motown, was a key independent label creating an entire musical culture. Thank you for the music, Jim Stewart, and rest in peace.
