Sounds LikeIt's hard to put Booker T. and the M.G.'s unique sound into words. Most people classify their genre of R&B as Memphis Soul. The band's unusual approach to tempo, technique, and tone make their songs instantly recognizable and a pleasure to listen to.

   About Booker T. & the M.G.'s
Booker T. & the M.G.'s is a soul band, most prominent in the 1960s and 1970s. They are most commonly associated with Stax Records and are often placed in the subgenre of Memphis soul. They are probably best known for their 1962 hit instrumental Green Onions and for being the house band for many Stax/Volt performers. As originators of the unique Stax sound, the group was one of the most prolific, respected, and imitated of their era. By the mid-1960s, bands on both sides of the Atlantic were trying to sound like Booker T. & the M.G.'s.
