One of the godfathers and architects of soul music, organist Booker T. Jones stands as a true American musical icon. As keyboardist for the Stax Records house band, Jones played on and helped arrange countless seminal recordings of legends like Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, Albert King and others. He also had enormous success with his own band, Booker T. and the MG’s, scoring 60’s soul-funk hits like the classic “Green Onions.”
