Booker T. and the MG's: 'Onion' Time
Once upon a time I just loved to dance. It was great to go to events and hear good music. I remember a fave of mine was the wild music of the smokin' hot group, Booker T. and the MG's. Wow! These guys could serve up a big prime rib sound that was so hot, so strong. A favorite tune of this classic unit was the super 'Green Onions.' It had a constant pulsing beat that was sensational. Another good one was the tune with the ascending sounds, 'Time is Tight.' Anyhow, I listened to the mighty Booker T. and the MG's late this afternoon. Lord, that fine bluesy Booker T. and the MG's big 'ole sound was so fantastic. The stuff really set you to swaying with the earthy, right-on raw and just right chords.

Nice Writing
THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy. He does not use too many adjectives. His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.

COOLING OFF WITH WEST COAST JAZZ is loads of fun. The temp is wildly hot now and so I listened to Art Pepper jazz, grand West Coast stuff....
