The legendary Booker T. Jones of Booker T. & the MG's. Here's the link to the whole show. Very cool. I've been preaching about this show for a couple years now; it is time you listened to me!
The Memphis-born Booker T. Jones was honored with induction into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and a Grammy lifetime achievement award for
his genre-defining Hammond B-3 organ work with the renowned Stax Records
group Booker T and the MGs alongside guitarist Steve Cropper, bassist
Donald “Duck” Dun and Al Jackson Jr. His new solo album, The Road from
Memphis, which was released in May on Anti- Records, features cameos by
Lou Reed, My Morning Jacket’s Jim James and Sharon Jones. The L.A. Times
said, “Jones makes a quietly convincing case that when it comes to soul
music, all roads do seem to lead to Memphis.” Booker T., who has
collaborated with a who’s-who of popular music greats, including Ray
Charles, Otis Redding, Bill Withers, Rufus Thomas, Carla Thomas, Neil
Young, Stephen Stills and Willie Nelson, among many others, had a blast
playing with Daryl on the show.
“One of the nicest things about performing on Live from Daryl's House
is that Daryl has surrounded himself with musicians who can 'hear,’”
enthused Booker T. “That is, each one has talent to the extent of being
capable of performing as a soloist on his own, not needing to be told
the proper notes to sing or play.”
