'Carla Thomas was to Memphis' Stax Records what Aretha was to Atlantic: the label's reigning matriarch, able to wrap her glorious voice around "B-A-B-Y" and "Let Me Be Good to You," chart-toppers from the precocious songwriting team of Isaac Hayes and David Porter, as well as R&B standards like Willie Dixon's "Little Red Rooster." Backed by the Stax house combo, fronted by Booker T. and Steve Cropper, Carla also shows off her storied versatility with knockout renderings of "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" and "I Fall to Pieces." Carla is often referred to as the Queen of Memphis Soul. She is the daughter of Rufus Thomas.'
