In March of 1966, negotiations were being made for The Beatles to possibly record their next studio album in Memphis, TN at Stax Records. Concerns over security, money, and other factors ultimately killed the deal and The Beatles remained at Abbey Road. Can you imagine what that next record, to be titled Revolver, would have sounded like had it been recorded in Memphis? Would Otis Redding have added some background vocals? Would Booker T have played organ? What about the Memphis horns?
Since The MD’s main goal is to keep the incredible catalog of Booker T & The MG’s music alive, they have decided to try something a little different. With the utmost respect to Booker, Steve, Duck, and Al, they are going to perform Revolver as they think the MG’s would have in the ’60s.
