I'll bet I've heard this song at least a million times but I never knew!

My folks used to play this all the time when I was a kid. Great video but I feel a bit sick after some of that camera work. Wonder what the tele would sound like plugged in?

Great song, talented Stax band. Unfortunately most of these guys perished in Otis Redding's plane crash.

I remember that as the intro music from Stuart Henry's (do any of you UK guys remember him??) radio programme on Radio 1 back in the late 60's/early 70's and always liked it then.

I hadn't thought about it being a tele in there but perhaps that was the Steve Cropper influence in the Stax studio.

Great tune - on a par with 'Green Onions' in my book - now there's a tele tone for you......
