Booker T. and the MG’s: “Time is Tight”, Live 1970
Here’s a groove that’ll make you feel good.
Donald “Duck” Dunn locks in on this jam with Booker T. and the MG’s during a show at the Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California on January 31, 1970.
So is Duck Dunn! CCR looking on.
Is Duck plugged into CCR’s Kustom bass head? Looks like to me. Don’t cuss Kustom!
UFFFF!
And Cropper playing the coveted rosewood Telecaster.
Ow my aching back, 8 x 10 cabs for everyone. RIP Duck.
A true master.
Heh, I do a solo bass cover of this that isn’t nearly this good. :(
I think they’re opening for CCR, you can see Cosmo Clifford and John Fogerty in the opening frames.This was one of CCR’s biggest shows in their hometown of Oakland.
I just listened to a booker t interview and he said this is their most burning performance. They brought because credence was watching
Miss the man! He grooved so damn hard!
BT & MGs and CCR on the same bill….what a night. Wonder if there’s a movie somewhere?
Love the growl of his P bass. Just a great tune.
