This is how Booker T. Jones, who performs on February 25, 2022 at Jack Singer Concert Hall, starts the penultimate mini-chapter of his 2019 memoir Time is Tight: My Life, Note by Note: “I have at last reached the point in my career where audiences demand my early work. Each show must include Green Onions and a couple of others from that era.”[2] That era is, of course, the classic 1960s period of Stax Records and the definition of the Memphis sound; and yet it’s only one chapter of Jones’ influential career, now in its seventh decade.
