Notes

9CDs + Booklet (Box Set)

Was released on Atlantic rather than Stax as Atlantic owns copyright of all nationally distributed Stax singles recorded between 59-68.

Booklet only lists producers when the original singles listed them; consequently, most tracks do not have producers listed.

1-7 is incorrectly credited to "Rufus & Friend" ("Friend" is actually Carla Thomas); due to the fact that the single release was originally credited to "Rufus & Friend"
