Sinister: Steve Cropper revealed!

[Ketan Shankardass]

>the spanish magazine Rock De Lux made an interview to Stevie and he
said that he´s a fan of the >Memphis blues, and Steve Cropper (i´ve
never heard anything from him) is his favourite.

hey all,

just in case anyone care about Stevie's favorite guitarist...Steve
Cropper played in one of the baddest blues bands ever...Booker T. & the
M.G.'s!!!!!!  (yes...he was an M.G.)  If you're interested in checking
them out, any greatest hits collection will pretty much suffice as a
starter just as long as it has "green onions" on it...also, the track
"melting pot" is worth searching out!  Cropper was also the A&R man at
Stax Records (nuff said) for awhile...finally, if you're looking for a
visual fix of the god-like inspirer of our man Stevie (the b&s man),
check out the classic movie "The Blues Brothers"...he plays in Jake &
Elwood's backup band ("the band!").

well, i'm sure that didn't interest everyone but if just more person out
there has a listen to "green onions" then i can feel no guilt!

take care

ketan

ps.  i am imensely jealous of anyone who has the means to go to the
upcoming b&s festival...not a mean, hating jealousy...just a desperate,
numbing jeaslousy...
pps.  does anyone else love cornelius?
