Hi Times: The Hi Records R&B Years [BOX SET]

January 11, 2010 By Richard C. Young

January 2010 Week 2
Hi Records was a label with personality, thanks in large part to its strongman, Willie Mitchell. Generally pictured as the rambunctious little brother of Stax, Hi actually dates back to 1957, but its heyday coincided with label golden-boy Al Green’s commercial flowering in the ’70s. Hi Times opens with a 1959 track from old Elvis sideman Bill Black and ends with a 1977 recording from Green’s The Belle Album, which pretty much signaled the end of his (or anyone else’s) top-dog-of-soul reign. In between, there’s a neat sampling of Memphis sounds highlighted by the ’70s classics of Ann Peebles, Syl Johnson, O.V. Wright, and Otis Clay. –Steven Stolder
