| | Deep Groove Encyclopedia - Bar Kays |
 | | Now consisting of Alexander with Willie Hall (drums), Winston Stewart (organ), Barry Wilkins (guitar), Vernon Burch (guitar), Harvey Henderson (sax) and vocalist Larry Dodson, the Bar- Kays developed a reputation as a fierce live outfit, which was briefly documented on the Wattstax concert. | | | Just as their career was beginning to take off, all of the Bar Kays except bassist James Alexander and trumpeter Ben Cauley were killed in the plane crash that claimed Otis Redding. | | | The Memphis band began as a backing band for Stax, and recorded their own hit "Soul Finger" in 1967. |

| | Initially a funky instrumental soul combo on Stax/Volt, the Bar-Kays were nearly destroyed when most of the band perished in the same plane crash that claimed Otis Redding. | | | Amazingly, the Bar-Kays not only regrouped but prospered, evolving into a popular funk ensemble over the course of the '70s. | | | They continued to score hits on the R&B charts... |

| | The Bar-Kays : Contagious - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
| | Things were basically a lost cause for The Bar-Kays by the time they issued this album in 1987. | | | Audiences were now solidly into rap, New Jack Swing-styled R&B or smoother, more sophisticated urban contemporary material, and The Bar-Kays weren't able to cover any of those bases. | | | This is among the last albums they did for a major label. |

'The AVI Collection' references the now-defunct AVI label and brings back some of the West Coast's most infamous disco tracks. |

King, Otis Redding, the Bar-Kays, and... | | | Dance with the Devil: The Rolling Stones& Their Times | | | Through conversations, history, and music, Booth draws a portrait of Richards unlike any other: his relationship with Mick Jagger, his passion for the blues, where he gets his sense of rhythm, and how he sees his music in the rock & roll (and world) tradition. |

| | Besides the mayors, others in attendance that night included civic leaders such as Henry Turley and John and Pat Tigrett, and, of course, the city's musical elite such as the Bar-Kays and Jim Dickinson. | | | What has always made Memphis a hotbed for musical activity in the first place is that it is the only real urban center for 300 miles in any direction, a magnet for the agrarian poor and disenfranchised who have often created the greatest art. | | | Memphis is a home for the world's misfits, nonconformists, and stragglers. |

| | Mass Hibsteria - TEN DAYS THAT SHOOK THE WORLD |
| | Anyhow, this is my ten favourite days as a Hibs fan, since I became Hibernian conscious around 1978, in case anybody is interested To 30-something international playboys (you know the kind of thing, a couple of pints in the Roseburn, Kays bar etc.) it may strike a cord at least. | | | Or the Green-and-Yellys, as they were that day, which seemed to heighten my sense of confusion at the whole affair, as Hibs chose to wear their flashy new change strip for the STV cameras. | | | Incidentally, that booking for Gordon Rae kept him out of the big match at Hampden, and he knew it the instant the yellow card was produced, much like Paul Gascoigne in the 1990 world cup. |

| | (Sad irony: Reeves became a posthumous recording star in England, earning quite a few gold and silver discs there in 1965 and 1966.) Three years after that went Otis Redding and all but two of the original Bar-Kays (whom he was grooming as his touring band) the same way. | | | And Jim Palmer's catcher on the day, Andy Etchebarren, told Koufax's biographer Jane Leavy: The first time up, I'm hitting eighth, Palmer is in the on-deck circle, I take two strikes, swing at the third, the three hardest fastballs I've ever seen. | | | Jim Croce died in a plane crash too. |
