June 10, 20177 yr Author Thanks for the link, I have contacted the person who was after material on the subject at that time and hope they reply but in the meantime any other info would be appreciated in particular did the Tour visit the Granby Halls Leicester ?

November 4, 20186 yr I went to see Otis at Granby Halls , Leicester in the Stax/Volt Tour of 1967 with Mick Banner an older friend and music mentor who was 18 at the time. I can't remember the date and I haven't got the ticket now, I was only 16. To me at the time it was the most incredible experience. Otis was fantastic but we were also blown away by Athur Conley and Sam and Dave as well as the great backing from Booker T and the MGs and the Mar-Keys.

I´m pleased you have mentioned this as I couldn´t find the Granby Halls as listed on the tour and yet I was convinced I listened to that concert, I never got a ticket but was outside listening through one of the exit doors on the Aylestone Road side. I was 15 and mad on the Stax sound.
