I saw one of my favorites at
The Narrows in
Fall River last night – a new venue for me. It’s about an hour from Boston but a breeze coming home. I will definitely be going back. You can bring your own food and drink. Tables are reserved but seats are first come first served.
Booker T. Jones read from his new memoir, had a brief
QA with the audience, and jammed with his son and 2 other fabulous musicians. What a
blast to hear
him play his
Booker T. and the MGs greats right there on his
Hammond organ. He talked about recording
Dock of the Bay, which was the last time he played with
Otis Redding. While he sang it, the audience joined in with the whistling that occurs at the end of the song. I’ll never forget that. Check out this joint. Learn about
Stax Records.
