2921400, that Green Onions is like a call to whoop ass Posted by Garhart Poppwell, Mon Feb-23-15 08:35 PM
For some reason whether it be in sports or martial arts, it's a go-to song for showing somebody getting decimated. I love that record to this day.

super tight. he tells great little stories between songs too. about playing with otis redding. seeing jimi hendrix play with the isley brothers in indiana. recording Green Onions when he was a fucking SOPHOMORE IN HIGH SCHOOL. the instant connection he had with the roots that led to their album. etc. etc.
