Soul Limbo is the eighth album by Booker T. & the MGs, released in 1968 on Stax Records. The title track is perhaps best known in the UK as the theme tune for BBC Television's cricket coverage and later for Test Match Special.
The album was the first Stax LP issued after the label severed its ties with former distributor Atlantic Records in May 1968.

The song "Soul Limbo" has also been covered by the English punk band Snuff on their double album Six Of One, Half a Dozen Of The Other.
