Our Take

Booker T. & the M.G.s' cheeky homage to Abbey Road is a delightful salute to one of the greatest albums of all time. With their funky instrumental stylings, this iconic group manages to capture the essence of The Beatles while still making the music their own.

From the opening track, "Medley: Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End," Booker T. & the M.G.s set the tone for a groovy journey through the classic Abbey Road album. The band's tight musicianship and infectious energy are on full display, as they effortlessly blend soul, jazz, and rock in a way that only they can.

Tracks like "Something" and "You Never Give Me Your Money" showcase the band's ability to reinvent well-known songs while maintaining the original charm and spirit of the originals. It's a testament to Booker T. & the M.G.s' creativity and musical prowess that they are able to breathe new life into these timeless classics.

Mclemore Avenue is a must-listen for fans of both Booker T. & the M.G.s and The Beatles. It's a fun and funky tribute to one of the greatest albums of all time, and a reminder of the enduring power of great music. Don't miss out on this gem of an album – it's bound to put a smile on your face and a groove in your step.
