Not a simple question. Though the Stax sound was different from the Motown sound being that more rooted in horns, and more southern tempo's. From the likes of Rufus Thomas and Booker T & The MG's as compared to Jr. Walker 'gut bucket' on Motown's SOUL label and The All Stars from Motown. (Jr. Walker originating 55miles from Memphis in Blytheville, AR) The Stax sound in my opinion was a little more rawer, and unpolished than the studio sound that Motown produced. No real comparison nor wish to. But the Muscle Shoal horns didn't have anything equivolent in Detroit, and Stax did not have the drums/percussions that Motown had. There is no real comparison, just being able to enjoy both is a treat. Since both the sound is rooted in the South, Motown started mixing things up with violins, and other instruments that were not used much in Memphis that used primarily Drums, Guitars, Trumpets/Brass, Bass and Piano or Wurlitzer & Hammond Organs.
