Booker T. Jones is the latest guest to visit Daryl Hall’s House for livefromdarylshouse.com.
Livefromdarylshouse.com is now 44 episodes old with the Stax legend joining Daryl for Booker T and the MG’s classics like ‘Green Onions’ and ‘Down In Memphis’ as well as a few Stax hits like the Booker T penned Albert King recorded ‘Born Under A Bad Sign’.
Hall and Jones also performed Eddie Floyd’s ‘I’ve Never Found A Girl (To Love Me Like You Do), William Bell’s ‘Everyday Will Be Like A Holiday’ as well as the Hall & Oates ‘I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do)’.
“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.”
“I grew up listening to Booker T. and the MGs. It’s an absolute privilege to have him on the show and be able to play alongside him. It doesn’t get more soulful than that.”
“I love the 'at home' atmosphere of performing on the show,” added Booker T. “Daryl's immediate and extended family stay near and furnish his guests with food, warmth and an audience.”
