About This: "We're having fun", Steve Cropper said after hearing the 25 long-gorgotten tracks that are finally seeing the light of the day with this release. It shows - in both the raw frat-party frenzy that marks many of the Mar-Keys tunes to the more refined blues sensibility of those by Booker T. & The MGs. Guitarist Cropper was a member of both bands, and they shared other personnel in the studio, particularly bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn, drummer Al Jackson, Jr., and keyboardist Booker T. Jones.
