ALCOHOL AND YOU (28 minutes, color, 1969). Produced by Max Miller for Avanti Films, Bailey-Film Associates, Los Angeles, California:

“This film establishes that young people are growing up in a drinking society in which it is easy for them to slip into the attitudes and drinking patterns of the one-in-fifteen drinkers who become alcoholic. Well known physicians provide concrete illustrations of the health hazards and emphasize that excessive drinking will produce the same physiological and social deterioration as alcoholism.”

Last Night (live version), The Mar-Keys (1967) Recorded in Europe during “Hit the Road Stax,” a Stax-Volt Records showcase revue. The Mar-Keys were the first house / session band for Stax Records, and Last Night was the first recording for the label. The instrumental made No. 3 in the US charts in 1961. For some reason the producer didn’t want guitars, so Steve Cropper played second keyboard.
