I really like this version of Green Onions. It some how makes the song even cooler. The lo-fi sound quality with it being a 60s live recording just gives it something. Also, the way they played it faster and extended it with more improvisation. Not to mention how cool they look playing it and of course that sound of the hammond organ. Awesome.

Instrumentally, this song stuck out from anything else to those who actually listened to the music back in 62. This is thinly disguised jazz presented as rock and roll, and no one at that time was putting out popular music with more integrity. I was grovin on this a a 16 year old in 62, learning to play the drums, it hooked me on blues jazz forever, and at the time I didn't know what I was listening to, I just knew it was good.

Yeah I'm of a similar age, and I remember hearing it on the radio over here in the UK then, I'd never heard anything like it, all the kids at school were raving about the Beatles (they were good - hahah) but I kept going on about Green Onions which they'd never heard, to the point where they got sick of me talking about it. And it was difficult to buy obscure records from the US in those days, had to order it from my local record shop - still got that 45 to this day - and the B-side, Behave Yourself, is a masterclass in Hammond organ playing, real bluesy.

For the record: Personnel Booker T. & the M.G.s Booker T. Jones - Hammond organ Steve Cropper - guitar Donald Dunn - bass guitar Al Jackson Jr. - drums This is from an April 7 1967 Norwegian TV recording of the legendary Stax/Volt Revue European tour of that year. Other audio-only live recordings have popped up (England & France), but this is the sole studio video recording. Booker T and The M.G.'s opened and stood as the backing band for the entire show, augmented by The Mar-Keys on horns for the singers: Arthur Conley, Eddie Floyd, Sam & Dave and, fittingly last, Otis Redding. While back in '09 PBS ran a shortened version of the full-length DVD of the show (via the Stax/Volt Museum), neither have been uploaded to YT in their entirety. So, individual performances are out there, but you're gonna have to dig. Here's a taste w Otis n Sam & Dave. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYbOYoqKdreYr6c Also, if you come upon vids w screaming audiences, that's likely the London show (lower quality - but rewarding nevertheless). Good luck & ENJOY!

As good a song as this is, I dunno if it's exactly 'the future' in 1967. It definitely inspired a ton of great music to come, but in '67 you had psychadelia and avant garde firmly gripping their influence on rock, and the first seeds of what would become prog rock, heavy metal, punk, and even electronica were being planted in '66 and '67, so I wouldn't exactly call an instrumental 12 bar blues vamp, however influential it was, 'the future'.

I went to the Stax Records museum in Memphis a few weeks ago - what a legacy these four left behind

We were in Memphis for about an hour in February. We drove by the Stax Museum and I didn't have time to stop by. I cried.

Booker T Jones & Mgs was definitely 20 steps ahead of the music of 1967.

The audience is in shock of how great this is. I don't think they were ready for this kind of music back then.

I love crowds that listen and appreciate, instead of screaming like morons. This crowd is awesome.

Thank you for pointing this out. It's a respectful, mind-blown European-type of crowd.

@@bernocreely4601 Sorry, but unfortunately Al Jackson was murdered in the 70's. You are thinking of Steve Jordan. He was born a lot later than Al was. Jordan has played with Keith Richards on his solo stuff for years. Both great drummers.

@@benmeisner-dr5bbJackson compareceu à exibição com Eddie Floyd e Terry Manning . Após a exibição, ele voltou para casa e encontrou intrusos na casa. Segundo consta, ele foi instruído a se ajoelhar e foi mortalmente baleado cinco vezes nas costas. Por volta das 3 da manhã de 1º de outubro, Barbara Jackson correu para a rua, gritando por socorro. Ela disse à polícia que ladrões a amarraram e atiraram em seu marido quando ele voltou para casa. A polícia não encontrou nada fora do lugar na casa, e a carteira e as joias de Jackson ainda estavam com ele. O homem que se acredita ter puxado o gatilho teria conhecido alguém em Memphis. Depois de roubar um banco na Flórida, essa pessoa disse ao suposto atirador para encontrá-lo na casa de Al Jackson. Rastreado pela Flórida, para Memphis e para Seattle, Washington, o suposto assassino, o namorado da amiga de Barbara Jackson, Denise LaSalle , foi morto por um policial em 15 de julho de 1976, após um tiroteio não relacionado.
