I think we all know Mike Love's role in "Heroes and Villains."
Nope.  Don't know of which you speak.  Please elucidate.

Jinx!

(Elucidation: Love's an asshole. And he was specifically critical of this album's ambition.)

Just caught a great PBS pledge week special that featured a Stax/Volt revue filmed in Oslo Norway in '67. No Carla, but Otis ruled the stage.

I was gonna say "an all-black show for an all-white audience", but i guess Steve Cropper was on stage somewhere...

Close. Duck Dunn was up there too--pre-beard and pipe days.

You're mostly right about the audience, but I was surprised to see a few dark faces in the crowd. US servicemen, I'm guessing.

Watched Wattstax the other night, if you haven't seen it, do!  the music is pretty good, of course  -- although i wanted to hear more of everyone -- but the interviews, the footage from 1972 is fantabulous!  

eta: The Wattstax concert, staged in LA Coliseum in 1972 to commemorate the 1965 LA riots, was an all-back show for a mostly all-black audience featuring Stax artists.  Issac Hayes headlines, but Rufus Thomas brings down the house w his two tunes.

originally it was "Damn good coffee!  And HOT!" - after he took a big slurp and spit it out because it was scalding.  But you got that it was Twin Peaks, so half a frink point anyway.
