2/2
“… I was fascinated by the way they pushed and pulled as players. They could do it all. Just a beautiful guy also. I really miss him.”

#Interestingly The two dapper young gentlemen out front in that “Green Onions” clip, Donald ‘Duck’ Dunn & Steve Cropper, had careers that were often intertwined… Here’s another clip featuring the two, lookin’ a bit different... 😆 #SteveCropper #DuckDunn #JohnBelushi #RIP #OneHitWondered

This Week On The Charts 5/3/1968: Booker T. and the M.G.s hit #6 with ‘Time Is Tight’. They started out as the Stax house band, and ended up as Blues Brothers, and laid down a lotta rock on the way. #BookerT #StaxRecords #VoltRecords #RockHonorRoll #SteveCropper #DuckDunn #AlJackson
