Limited Edition "Green Onions" Vinyl LP!
Mastered by Joe Reagoso from the Stax/Atlantic Records Monophonic Tapes!

The legendary Memphis Soul Kings Booker T. & the MG's began their careers early in the 1960s playing, arranging and writing for Stax artists behind the scenes at the famed studio. What started out as a simple jam with a different take on chordal structures, "Green Onions" was created while jamming in the studio. In record time, the tune burst into the soul and pop charts and quickly hit number one in the soul charts.

The amazing hit single crossed over to the top rungs of the pop charts in 1962, making this one of the most important recordings that year, while also crossing over this legendary quartet to an AM pop radio buying audience.

Thanks to this wonderful track, which has gone on to earn him multitudes of awards, accolades and a reputation of being one of the greatest soul records of all time, Booker T. Jones, Steve Cropper, Donald Duck Dunn and Al Jackson would go on to make more huge hit records for the masses for many more years.

More big hits followed for Booker T & the MG's, delivering more soul infusion to record buyers and radio stations with smashes like "Red Beans & Rice," "Soul Dressing," "Mo' Onions," "Hip Hug-Her," and others.

Celebrating over six decades of this amazing band, Friday Music is very pleased to offer the wonderful soul and rock sounds of Booker T. & the MG's and their great Atlantic Records classic The Best of Booker T. & the MG's on first-time-ever stellar "Green Onions" vinyl.

Recorded at Stax Studios with the legendary Jim Stewart, the classic Atlantic album is finally back with all of its original twelve masterpiece tracks mastered impeccably from the Stax/Atlantic monophonic recordings by Joe Reagoso (Ray Charles, Wilson Pickett, Booker T. & the MG's).

For this super limited edition soul event, Friday Music are also including its original retro 1968 artwork elements.
