Gee whiz it's time for the Stax poll results!

In the end we only got 10 ballots, so I'll do the rollout fairly quickly. For the main tracks poll I'll do a top 30, for the subpolls I'm just going to list all the albums/tracks that got votes.
Albums first!

Otis Redding - Otis Blue (Volt, 1965)Isaac Hayes - Hot Buttered Soul (Enterprise, 1969)Soul Children - Friction (Stax, 1974)Booker T and the MGs - Green Onions (Stax, 1962)Shirley Brown - Woman to Woman (Truth, 1974)Soul Children - Soul Children (Stax, 1969)Lou Bond - Lou Bond (We Produce, 1974)Otis Redding - Dictionary of Soul (Volt, 1966)Isaac Hayes - Black Moses (Enterprise, 1971)Margie Joseph - Makes a New Impression (Volt, 1970)Isaac Hayes - Shaft (Enterprise, 1971)Eddie Floyd - Soul Street (Stax, 1974)Booker T and the MGs - In the Christmas Spirit (Stax, 1967)
The list is in order but as there were just three album ballots I'm not giving point totals - only Otis Blue and Hot Buttered Soul got more than one vote.
Looks like 1974 was a good year for album releases, even as the company was sinking...

I just noticed...this is posted in ILE instead of ILM.

Like I've only started two threads in the past six months and both were on the wrong board.

It's still early! You could re-post on ILM!

Actually that might be a better idea. Last time we moved threads interboard, things got messed up.
