I have watched this documentary more than once. It's very well done.
I do feel that Estelle [[Jim Stewart's sister) was done wrong.
The video cuts off early. Another post of the same documentary was uploaded in sections. The remainder of the documentary can be found here:

Thanks Heikki: I have Rob's book and thoroughly enjoyed it. I wish he would do something with Motown and Invictus as well.
Yes, bought the book when it first came out over here [[UK), I had a job putting it down. Absolutely loved it.Quote:

Given the era in which they started and thrived, it was nothing short of a miracle that they made it as far as they did and became so influential.
To this day Stax, and it's music, remains one of my all-time favourite studios.
