An instrumental composition created in 1962 by Booker T. & the M.G.'s, this piece became one of the most celebrated soul and R&B instrumental tracks of its time. The song employs a twelve-bar blues structure and highlights a flowing Hammond M3 organ performance by bandleader Booker T. Jones, who composed it at age 17, though the actual studio recording was largely spontaneous and unscripted.
