Visited the great city of Memphis yesterday, always try to listen to these guys on the way home... If you're ever there, be sure to include Soulsville (the Stax/Volt studios on McLemore) in your visit.
Otis Redding: "My Girl"
Big Star: "September Gurls"
Lucero: "Wasted"

Nice work on the blog, John. And thanks for the homage to Memphis. There are a lot of reasons to knock my home, but music ain't one of them. One could probably fill a blog entirely of Memphis stuff.
In addition to Lucero, one of my favorite bands these days (also from Memphis) is Reigning Sound. I know you're familiar with them, but your readers might not. They're a garage band type sound with some subtle R&B/Soul mixed in. Their album "Time Bomb High School" is a good place to start though you really can't go wrong with any of them.
