  • Absolutely beautiful. The MGs were the masters of cover songs. They could take any song and make it a million times better. Just listen to McLemore Avenue, it's a Booker T & the MGs album where they just play Abbey Road covers. Abbey Road is one of my favorite albums ever, but after I heard the MGs version, I find it hard to go back. The final medley on the album culminating with I Want You (She's so Heavy) is my favorite piece of music ever.

  • I love booker Ts organ!!

  • @gpcl16 that album was actually produced by george harrison pretty cool huh Mclemore avenue

  • This performance by Booker T was absolutely Brilliant!! The man's Hammond could touch your soul!!! I love the fact that the crowd was being very still and allow this song to come out so smooth and hear every artist do his thing!!! Steve Cropper had th guitar humming My goodness!! To have this in an album I would not hesitate to buy it!!!

  • My absolute favorite of all time.

  • My absolute favoirte of all time!

  • @anklebreaka03 you're absolutely correct, I love this song around the 4:02 mark the guitar player is getting N2 the groove, but around 4:09 he takes my soul because he really lets it rip.

    this is one of the best performances I've ever seen. I saw the group War once, they did a version of "slipping into darkness" that had me drunk, I had the best seat in the house up front, I stood up, dance the whole night and I'll never forget the drummer gave me his drumsticks after the show ,I was in heaven.

  • @olliegee1 Its ok thank you for replying

  • @TheNorthernSoulKing I know absolutely nothing about them man, sorry. Could only translate the message.

  • @olliegee1 Thank you for translating. I got a Concord. Do you know much about them?

  • @TheNorthernSoulKing He said: "I'm a fan of Booker T, I have a Leslie 122 (the best) for sale"
