Soul Legend Booker T. Jones

Booker T. Jones is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, four-time GRAMMY winner and arguably the most famous Hammond B3 player in history. As leader of the legendary Booker T and the MGs, this pillar of soul music collaborated with Otis Redding, Albert King, and more during his tenure at Stax Records.  Since then, Booker has lent his trademark keyboard chops to and produced classic albums such as Willie Nelson’s multi-platinum hit Stardust and Bill Withers’ Just As I Am featuring the hit song “Ain’t No Sunshine”.

With his Hammond B-3 organ, Booker T. Jones, along with the MG’s, would come to define The Memphis Sound.
