About Booker T. & the M.G.'s
Booker T. & the M.G.'s combined their own instrumental records with work as the house band at Stax in Memphis. Booker T. Jones' organ and Steve Cropper's guitar were central to a rhythm section that included Al Jackson and, at different stages, bassists Lewie Steinberg and Duck Dunn. Green Onions and Time Is Tight represent the group's own soul repertoire.
