Tale of the tape
#5 in Fax Records’ Stag Party Record Series “Off Limits featuring Wild Service Songs” These were sold with strategically placed strips of tape which in many cases were removed hastily and often left marks. There are a few series of these adult comedy records with collectible nude covers (put out by Fax, Davis and Adam for example). Not much to listen to, but favorites for cover lovers around the world.

Mr. Big Stuff
“Mr. Big Stuff” Jean Knight on Stax Records (1971) The song “Mr. Big Stuff” reached #2 on the pop chart and #1 on the R&B chart. It went double platinum, was one of the label’s biggest hits and received a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Vocal Performance (she lost to Aretha Franklin’s version of “Bridge Over Troubled Water”) And what a cool cover! Unfortunately, Jean never reached such commercial heights again.
I saw her perform at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in 1992 (her home town) and she was great! I remember everyone in Congo Square grooving to “Dont Talk About Jody” (also on this album). I hope you enjoy it too.
