Fact #164544

When:

Short story:

It is revealed that Stax Records and Atlantic Records have parted company, after working together since 1960 when Atlantic first began distributing Stax product. The split will cause tumult at Stax when it is realised that despite the ending of their agreement, Atlantic has retained control of all Stax masters since the start of the agreement, thus leaving Stax virtually without any catalogue.
