GREAT song....

I pulled this from the net as to how it was made

As the guys were calling it a night after recording this song, Jim Stewart asked them to listen to what he'd recorded on one particular take. They listened but weren't as impressed as Jim, who asked: "If we released this as a record, what would you want to call it?" "Green Onions," was Booker T. Jones' reply. "Why 'Green Onions'" Jim asked. Booker T: "Because that is the nastiest thing I can think of and it's something you throw away." (Thanks to Ron Foster. More from Ron at www.oldiesradioonline.com.)

I remember this song from American Graffiti. As everyone was heading out to Paradise Road for the big race it was playing. Great Song!!!
