Booker T. Jones

"As long as there’s been soul music there’s been Booker T. Jones.” -BBC

At the intersection of Rock and Roll, R&B and Soul, Booker T. Jones stands out among others. While playing with Stax Records house band, the M.G.’s, Booker T. penned classic tunes for Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd and Albert King, becoming one of the architects of southern soul music. He still sets the gold standard for the Hammond B-3 groove, whether he is playing his classic Green Onions or enjoying one of his recent collaborations with Neil Young, Sharon Jones, Willie Nelson or the Roots.
