@ Stax Records :

@last.fm : At the age of 17, she recorded a duet with her father Rufus Thomas, “Because I Love You” , which became a Southern hit and gave the Satellite label (later Stax Records) its first real success. In 1961 she rose to national prominence with “Gee Whiz (Look in His Eyes)”, which reached the Top Ten in both the R&B and Pop categories, becoming the first Memphis soul record to have an impact nationwide and insuring the success of the Stax Records label.
