Great moments.... but Stax should have done better,
By Afregabon "Butch Is Real" (71640) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stax Profiles (Audio CD)
This collection is not worth the full price of a CD today when money is funny and change is strange. Missing are the duets, b-sides and alternative versions for this "Greatest Hits" compliation. Two blown up photos & 2 paragraphs by Dr. Mable John, who has more billing on this CD than Carla herself. If Stax is out reinvent itself with their catalog, the label should spend some money on a historian / writer to document this beautiful soul darling's career. Who is she if one wants to know her more.

It's not quantity but the quality of the experience,

This review is from: Stax Profiles (Audio CD)
Some others complain they didn't get a toy in their Happy Meal. If you want a lot of food for a low price then hog down at Micky Ds. However, if you are looking for a fine meal, you'll pay for what you get. This album has been mastered with great sound and the song selections were cherry picked by someone who KNOWS. I agree with the comment that "Gee Whiz", alone is worth the price of the album. However, most of the songs are worth a 5 star rating. Carla in her prime! Her voice and style takes me back to the '60s; to when I was young and its an express ride. Just like a scent is considered to be thee most powerful of the senses to evoke a memory; listening to Carla Thomas takes me THERE.
2.0 out of 5 stars
too much of the same thing,
This review is from: Stax Profiles: Carla Thomas (MP3 Download)
This album has a lot of songs that are basically alike. They're almost all trite, mid-tempo pop songs about love. Even the chord changes are the same: "icecream changes" (I IV IV V), over and over again, with an augmented chord thrown in as a gimmick on the V chord. Several of the reviewers here have complained that there's not enough material on this disc, but actually by the time I was done listening to it I was wishing that I had heard even less of the same old same old.
