About Booker T. Jones
Artist Biography
Renowned as the organist and leader of the unparalleled Stax house band Booker T. & the MG's, Memphis native Booker T. Jones remained active as a solo artist after the breakup of the quartet. Jones was the first to leave the group in 1968, relocating to Los Angeles and producing Bill Withers' 1971 gold record Ain't No Sunshine. He recorded several albums with his wife, vocalist Priscilla Coolidge, as Booker T. & Priscilla in the early '70s. He also managed a substantial seller of his own in 1981 with the single "I Want You." He emerged in 2009 with Potato Hole, a solo album recorded with acclaimed alt-country outfit the Drive-By Truckers, and featuring Neil Young on guitar. ~ Bill Dahl
