There's a great book about Stax, "Respect Yourself." The author got interviews with so many of the major players before they died. Really in depth.

I looked her up - she played Peter Gunn's girlfriend, and sang on the show.

I only know the music. Don't remember ever seeing any stations showing reruns of it. But maybe now it's on youtube or sumthin?
