Eric Mercury – “I Shall Not Be Moved - Live at Wattstax/1972” is taken from Stax Records' new titles paying homage to the iconic Wattstax Benefit Concert, which took place at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on August 20th, 1972: "Soul’d Out: The Complete Wattstax Collection" and "Wattstax: The Complete Concert". Featuring artists including Isaac Hayes, The Staple Singers, Rufus Thomas, Albert King, William Bell and many more. "Soul’d Out: The Complete Wattstax Collection" is a 12-CD box set featuring the complete 1972 L.A. Memorial Coliseum concert plus recordings from the Summit Club, including 31 previously unreleased tracks across the collection. These recordings are housed in a folio with a 76-page, full-color book featuring an introduction by Wattstax creator Al Bell, and new essays by Rob Bowman and A. Scott Galloway. "Wattstax: The Complete Concert" includes the full L.A. Memorial Coliseum concert and is available on both 6-CD and 10-LP formats. Also available is a 1-CD title, "The Best of Wattstax", which brings together a handpicked selection of twenty of the best musical performances from the Wattstax concert. Plus, newly cut from the original analog tapes, reissues of the two original soundtrack albums "Wattstax: The Living Word" and "The Living Word: Wattstax 2"—which feature highlights from the concert and subsequent documentary film—are also each reissued on 2-LP formats.
