I've listened to many a group featuring the MH on backup. It's quite a coincidence that I should pick up a Otis Redding number.

I'm a 72 year old kid from Oxford England, and when I heard this kind of music my life was transformed. I wanted to play drums just like the guy on the record, and now I do. Al Jackson Jr has been one of the most influential drummers there has ever been. Possibly THE most influential drummer, certainly during the 20th century. John Bonham - Led Zep, Simon Kirke - Free and Kenny Jones - Small Faces, Faces and The Who, all have referenced him as the major influence on their playing. Not only could he whack that snare drum like Satan, but he came up with the most intricate drum beats, around a '4 to the bar' beat. I suppose if he hadn't have died so young, he'd still be creating new beats. RIP, Al.

@@stephenbrooks6174 I'm a 66 year kid from England and I've been a raving loony fan of Al Jackson Jr since I was 14. Broke my heart when I heard he had been murdered. I could talk about his playing for a week and not get tired. The greatest 'song' player that ever walked the earth. Like Steve Cropper, he wasn't interested in showing his chops just complementing the song, but his chops shone out anyway! How the hell he produced those three 16 note rolls on the end of Double or Nothing with that tiny little kit is beyond me! If you look up some of the comments of Terry Manning he says he was one of the nicest human beings you could ever wish to meet. I just wish somebody out there would write his biography as he certainly deserves one. An incredible musician. Loved reading your comments about him, it's nice to know I'm not the only Al Jackson fanatic on the planet. 🤣

@@perkster123 I'm a 73 year old kid from Oxford who, when the first time I heard Green Onions I stood stock still like a rabbit in the headlights. I'd bemoaned the fact that America gets Lirttle Richard and we get Cliff Richard - but what was this groove? It was earthy, relaxed, but like a snake slithering up your spine. And this was the B side!? If you want to get a woman (or a man - I'm not sexist) into your bed, play the original A side Behave Yourself. I used to play it at 78rpm, it never failed. But if you want to hear how a drummer just underplays on a soul ballad torch song, listen to his exemplary playing on Otis Redding's I've Been Loving You Too Long (Too Stop Now). He knows the power of a hi hat just playing the beat quietly in the background, and he then brings in the bass drum, and then as the song begins to build crescendo, so does Al with the snare drum. It;s like when a woman is doing that thing to a man and he's urging her to go faster and faster but she doesn't, and the resulting climax is like a thousand Hiroshimas, well that's what he does. This is how a drummer plays to a song and doesn't get in the way like a lot of drummers do. We know who you are Mitch Mitchell! Good jazz player, all splashy cymbals and all of that, but what would have Jimi's songs sounded like with AL Jackson Jr thundering his 4 to the bar in the background?
