Booker T & the MG's - Hip Hug Her

[MrLeznat]

Barfly!

[danarw81]

"I'm just a crazy beer drinking wrestler who likes to fart"

[MultiPelias]

KZEP in San Antonio use this song as a morning bumper music!

[RunawayTrane]

Booker T owns the groove!

[ModGirl1967]

Booker T + Steve + Duck = Magic

[Mustang5Speed]

@ModGirl1967 Don't forget Al!

[ModGirl1967]

@Mustang5Speed OMG! How could I? Al is gone but never forgotten...

[TREVOR1900]

Gotta love the early 90s. The drummer is playing like he just did a fat line of coke.

[gregorisgod]

I love this song thanks to Bukowski's Barfly. Amazing.

[MyToad77]

these guys are the best! just like fine wine get better with age.

[massenga]

Always reminds me of one of my favorite movies, "Barfly" with Mickey Rourke and Faye Dunaway.

[LudaZena1228]

@massenga yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

[reedersax]

This is my theme music.  Everyone should have theme music.

[bbBassYo]

@reedersax Haha yeah, Mine is green onions.

[lewars1912]

@reedersax (:o)

[pvrdvd123]

Anton Figg is no slouch, does Al proud. Ending kinda weird, but you can't fade live.

[bueil]

serge gainsbourg chatterton!!!!

[BonHagar]

QUOTE: Booker T. and the Mgs aren't the same without the great Al Jackson.

Yep indeed.

[gezunder]

tight as fuck....brilliant

[54markl]

It made a cool commercial for disc jockey school, but it was a fine instrumental in its own right, Everybody knew this song. Frank Zappa did a hilarious cover of it called "Does Thi Kind of Life Look Interesting to You?" Check it out!

[atrios28]

hey all of a sudden I'm so popular - maybe i oughta run for city council ...

[wannawatchu66]

Not a complaint, but I wish they'd showed at least one close-up of Duck's face. The only one he got was of plucking his bass strings at 1:11. Better than nothing, I guess. JohnStuartWade said they're not the same without Jackson. True, but here I think they have a quite capable replacement in Anton Fig. You may remember him as the drummer on "Late Night with David Letterman" in the 80s.

[AcePilot101]

I was the onion in the Green Onions.

Our tribute to the immortal Booker T. Washington is often played at college night clubs in Toronto. By the way, you can see me here under the stage.

[awsullyful]

man now that's a funky sond booker t and the boys got down on this song

[moneycasper]

Great shit, loved it many moons

Gordo TO

[massenga]

"To all my frrrrrriends...!"

[CTOL1]

Far out

[Hartstok]

i love this group, When I started playing bass, the myth to which I refer was Donald Duck Dunn the best bassist in the world *-*

[pretorious700]

@Hartstok James Jamerson was the best...Duck was a close second.

[TIME88551]

ahh yes the 90's

[IdAnIsS]

long live the duck! (dunn)

[MrRobbell]

A beer ...Scotch and Soda for the Barfly ! xD

[S2Sturges]

Steve Cropper..... less is best.... a big influence on me ....they still can kick it!

Thanks for posting!

[eljimbo123]

[tomthefunky]

I've spent thousands of hours studying the music of BTMG"s. My Tele burns. Long live Al Jackson!!!!

[vdjdocterry]

Is this video coming from a DVD ????

[TheMusicalElitist]

This is just AMAZING! SO BLOODY AMZING! I LOVE IT! :)

[jode72]

One of the coolest Hammond organ lead lines ever in a song. Booker T and the MGs are the worldwide ambassadors of soul!

[rainydaywoman1957]

sounds like the theme to a 70s sit com

[eartant]

It was the theme to an 80's movie.....BARFLY ! ( is that close enough ?)

[wonkavella]

and what a great movie that was.i think it was in a movie called the incident too with a very young martin sheen

[sbruku2000]

That's what I call music.Call it whatever.Iam dancing my all legs off,and my wife and son can't understand why.The good old days. SAM

[larreemarcus]

Duck ranks right up top with the greatest bass players of all time -- Duck, Entwistle and Bootsy Collins.

[dohertykaki]

spaghetti legs stuff :)

[dohertykaki]

Like ,warm butter! :) K

[adsdeshaka]

muyyy buenoo

[terrryc]

Anton Fig is in the CBS Orchestra on David Letterman. I first heard him on a Link Wray album (live at the Presidio). He is one great drummer...

[JimNiHarp]

Love Jazz. This is IT.

[tomthefunky]

This is the song that hooked me along time ago. The Hip-Hugger album ,1967, is a must have for anyone new to them. I promise it won't disapoint

[Medic83301]

Steve Cropper is one of the greatest guitar players alive along with Duck Dunn , who ranks behind James Jamerson & Bob Babbitt on bass guitar .

[pondergrace]

Swing those hips! Sweet!

[josette47]

These Gents are tight..., and real as they come,true talent. The first time I saw them, when they played my freshman year Spring Dance 1966 at FVSC (then), FVSU (now), this sound playing now is one of favorites. Thanks so much for the memories, you are the Walter Cronkite on Utube. You bring nothing but best, it just keep on coming! Don't let nothing stop you. Bless you!

[IGORIGOR125]

Hip Hop her :)))

[mynameisjflo]

Cropper and Dunn, are the shit!!! in my opinion it doesn't get any better!

[winsome1235]

Isn't Allah the Arab translation for God?

[3choBlast3r]

It actually is :D ( And anyone that doesn't believe me, I'm a muslim...)

[moradorbrooklin]

now- -the guy doesn't mean God. He really means Allah. Amazing how this thing is growing on

[electricrobot]

Where's Preston Lacy?

[cmdrchris971]

[PissedUrf]
