Booker T & the MG's - Melting pot

[hbq3000]

Love this song, and extra happy that my favorite ban The Roots did a tribute to it.

[discogolfin]

Herd this over the PA at a widespread panic show a couple days ago during set break. What a great tune

[Nebeltau]

[teovenbar]

Best living years of the 20th century...........poor kids of mine, there is no music in the 21th century

[m3tallicats]

[eliasmix]

Thanks...I no stop crying 2 days....greetings from Valparaíso, Chile.

[TheMrrick58]

Booker T can still bring it!!! The drummer fits right in as the late Al Jackson was superb!! Smooth stuff and a willing listen when mellowing out with doing small chores, but mostly it is made for just being still and chillin' !!!! Like I said, Booker T and the Boys can still "bring It"!! Absolutely beautiful music!!!

[LoveforGia]

one of my mamma's favourites - she told me to look this shit up.. she such a g.. love you ma...

[kristymiami123]

BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bradbradbradbrad]

Hah, look at Cropper's hair, that's great. This album is to me the best album ever recorded. This album and very few others (namely Abbey Road and Unleashed in the East) takes me on a fantastic mental journey. It's really indescribable, but I know it when I experience it. RIP Al Jackson, that guy is so inspriing, he allowed me to look at playing drums in a whole new way

[rockaz45]

classic!!

[6irondriver]

Yep.. 5 years old in my Dad's red and white chevy '72 pickup-standing up in the middle of the bench seat of course with Mom's arm for a seatbelt if we had to stop too fast. God bless the old days and the classic music.

[bigwillhenk]

Great music

[TheMastergatorbaiter]

yeah...

[blaster1985]

When I was 15, I played in a bar band that used to cover this song; I'd never heard of it, but it was a blast to play as a drummer. Thanks for the memories; people tend to remember Green Onion when referring to Booker T.

[The0Killers]

That was nice. I like that song.

[Wolfsblut55]

KLASSE !!! Seit über 30 Jahren !!! Immer noch unerreicht !!!

Danke für dieses Video !!!

[hajan59]

SUUPER, ich kann das nur bestätigen !!!

Was haben wir abgetanzt !!!!!

Seiner Zeit weit voraus, oder besser gesagt einfach zeitlos !!!

[budelke]

wow. great live version, still got the Melting Pot album with the long version.

love it.

[smartbomber06]

That is a great album, I could just play it on a loop forever.

[papaupapaeueo]

increiblemente bueno

[6irondriver]

When I was a kid I thought they meant they were melting pot-as in Marijuana. I was'nt hip to the societal terms back then, hehe.

[interpidwoody]

lol

[MusicHeinz]

What a great musician. One of my favorite groups. I love that organ.

[goodtotheend1]

one of the greatest songs in the world, easy listening and very soothing and great to dance too.

[bigguy4570]

I'm going to ask a really stupid question is Booker T still alive?

[Scissorwiaua]

Yes he is and still recording.

[bigguy4570]

Thank you it is nice to know he is still active.

[sternumagnum]

He'll always be, man.

[philburrell]

nice post, audio is a little low but enjoyable, thanx

[jazzyjay334]

This is one of my second all time favorites by Booker T. & The MG's. Love this performance but no disrespect to Anton Fig but the flavor on the drums for this tune is missing without Al Jackson Jr.

[loosestudios]

He was reportedly told to get down on his knees shot fatally five times in the back. , Barbara Jackson ran out in the street, yelling for help. She told police that burglars had tied her up, and then shot her . The man police believed to have pulled the trigger the then-boyfriend of R&B singer Denise LaSalle Indictments against Barbara Jackson, Denise LaSalle supposed to be served, but never were. the boyfriend was killed by a police officer on July 15, 1976 after a gun battle

RIP AL

[mnaicck]

I've watched this a hundred times and more!

Man, I love Booker

[marylinrose1953]

This is what we call "MUSIC !!! " Anton Fig is a great drummer.Thank you so much for this.

[917789823]

[vangelisideras]

Que maravilla de canción. Considero a Booker uno de los padres del Hammond y uno de los principales músicos americanos; excelente video, gracias.

[prinia]

[jumbosilverette]

funky restraint. beautiful.

[Sabiano]

exactly! Ripping out a 32nd note double bass fill isnt difficult...what's difficult is NOT to rip it out!

A lot of fucked up death metal kids today could learn vital info from this vid alone!

Awe-inspiring musicianship right here man and I love the shady club atmosphere! I miss those days!

[52guitarbob]

Amen!

[Khartoum22]

High claaaaaaaaaaass!

Great musicians!

[bellydancer1970]

WICKED!!

[FluffyWagglekins]

Is there a fire in the building?

[mysticmaverick1]

It's just "Play It Steve" Cropper's smokin' guitar.

[e7rachael]

stuff like this is why i could never listen to all the journey/eagles/kansas crap

[petermartindale]

yer im into these guys atm, but before id never really heard of them,these guys are genius's, they play a brilliant song so well and make it literally a perfect song. loads of ppl have heard green onions and soul limbo but not know who its by. also its ppl like these that have inspired a lot of the music today.

[HisRoyalMarkness]

Couldn't agree more. Its too bad the music that gets play these days is not more like this even though they were all touched by this brilliant playing.

[charliedontsurf70]

amazing clip,these guys never got their due.
