Carla Thomas was featured amongst the female artists on Boy Meets Girl. Carla has vocal pairings with Johnnie Taylor, William Bell and Eddie Floyd and also with Pervis Staples of the renowned gospel and secular group the Staple Singers. As the Staple Singers were a mixed female/male line-up that sang easily and well together, it made a lot of sense to use the Staples family as the other main source of artists for the concept. Consequently the strong-voiced Mavis Staples also appears singing with William Bell, Eddie Floyd and Johnnie Taylor and her sister Cleotha shares a song with Eddie. All the singers appear on the opening track Soul-A-Lujah. Here it is for the first time re-issued on CD The tracks for Boy Meets Girl were recorded principally at Ardent studios in Memphis and at the Fame Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama with the backing musicians which later became known as the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section.
