Issued under the Atlantic banner in mono only, the Last Night LP by the Mar-Keys was actually the first Stax recorded LP. I chosed it as "LP of the month" as it seems, at last,  due to be released on CD. It is also through the Last Night hit that I discovered, back in 1962, that there was a tiny Stax label doing wonderful noises, somewhere on the other side of the big pond.
Except the title track itself, which revealed the glory of the Stax sound to the world and some tracks also issued on 45s, this LP shows various styles, ranging from jazzy (Misty, Stack O Woe) to pop (Diana) or just bad! (Ebb Tide, with that horrible bubbles noise). The list of track reveals what was played in the early 60s by the Mar-Keys' during their numerous live gigs, augmented with singer Ronnie Stoots, the man who designed the "swinging stack of discs" blue Stax logo.
