Booker T. & the MGs

Eddie phoned me, nearly two weeks ago, to ask if I had heard the bass-player had died. Somehow I had missed it in the Guardian. Booker T. and the MGs were a musical foundation stone of my youth and more importantly the Stax Records session band. Listening to this now, mind and body wander back in time. To The Scene, The Outlook and The Purple Onion in Middlesbrough. The Red Lion and Jazz Club in Redcar. The Flamingo in London.

Happy Days John

    Takes you back its good and its good there is a variety of very different items here to keep you not only amused, sometimes offended but importantly educated. That is what the diabetes community needs.

    Thanks - Grace
