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.
