Our Take

BOOKER T & THE MGS - Green Onions

In this iconic album, the legendary Booker T & The MGS serve up a platter of funky tunes that will have you grooving like it’s 1962 all over again.

From the moment that organ kicks in on the title track “Green Onions,” you know you’re in for a good time. This instrumental masterpiece is the epitome of cool – it’s like a sonic time machine that transports you straight to a smoky jazz club where the drinks are strong and the dance floor is never empty.

Tracks like “Soul Dressing” and “Chinese Checkers” showcase the band’s unparalleled chemistry and musicianship. The way Booker T’s organ weaves seamlessly with Steve Cropper’s guitar is nothing short of magical.

But it’s not all smooth sailing on this album. The band takes a more experimental turn on “Behave Yourself,” a hauntingly beautiful track that will send shivers down your spine.

With its infectious grooves and undeniable swagger, Green Onions is a must-listen for any music lover. So kick back, pour yourself a martini, and let Booker T & The MGS show you how it’s done. Trust us, you won’t regret it.
