Every bit of that footage is from Memphis. Graceland, Stax Records (not FAME) and WC Handy park are all in Memphis, Tennessee. "Time is Tight" was definitely recorded in Memphis - not Muscle Shoals.

Well - they do show a building that says "FAME Studios" on it...

Very cool! Yes, Memphis and Stax, Isaac Hayes on bari. Time is Tight released in '69.

Hi,
I'm the producer of a forthcoming documentary on a Stax Records artist, and we'd like to be able to track down this original footage for possible licensing. If the person who posted this material can help, we'd be extremely grateful. I can be reached at john@oldbridgemedia.com. Thanks very much...
