Here we present Crate Kings 5: Stax O’ Wax, a reader created instrumental tribute to Stax Records and the groundbreaking artists and music that made the label legendary.
Such notable artists as Issac Hayes, Booker T & the MG’s, Albert King, Otis Redding, the Bar-Kays, and Rufus Thomas provided the foundation for the tracks while each producer sampled, chopped, flipped, reworked, and added some of their own soul to create something uniquely inspiring and new.
The compilation, which consists of 37 tracks original tracks, was mixed by Rafferty and features original artwork by Flipa. Special thanks to each producer for taking the time to participate. Your talent and contributions are always appreciated.
Please feel free to download, repost to your own website or blog, and shout CK5 from mountaintops. I’m sure that you won’t be disappointed.

I like this site because so much useful stuff on here : D.
Ha, here from bing, this is what i was browsing for.
I must say, as a lot as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while.
stays on topic and states valid points. Thank you.
I have interest in this, xexe.
Very interesting points you have remarked, appreciate it for putting up.
I’m impressed, I have to admit. Genuinely rarely should i encounter a weblog that’s both educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you may have hit the nail about the head. Your idea is outstanding; the problem is an element that insufficient persons are speaking intelligently about. I am delighted we came across this during my look for something with this.
Enjoyed examining this, very good stuff, thanks .
