What fantastic footage. The guy 'leading' the horns, on a sax himself, is Isaac Hayes. Not sure if the other white guy on sax is Joe Arnold? Hadn't Packy Axton stop playing with them by then? I'm guessing this was shot around 1969/70?

I think you're right except about it being Mable John, she looks different!

I think that's Bettye Crutcher talking.

I believe the guys around the table with Issac are; Andrew Love (tenor sax with glasses), Packy Axton (tenor sax in the trench coat), Wayne Jackson (trumpet "I like me on the minor 3rd.."). Those three are better known as The Mar--Keys, while the quiet trumpet player is almost certainly David Porter; who was the other half of the formidable Porter/Hayes songwriting team. Lastly; if I'm not mistaken (which I could be), that's Mabel John being interviewed.

An amazing piece of History right here folks! How a French crew got in to film this....it's just amazing. The songs featured are Brook Benton - "She Knows What to Do for Me" (a cover of a Ben E King tune), The Emotions - "So I Can Love You" and yes, Booker T. & The MG's - "Time Is Tight". Superb!
