Beschreibung
When Don Nix began his career in Memphis, he was still in high school. Over time, his first band, the Mar-Keys, evolved into Booker T. and the MGs. As a producer and musician, Nix worked with Freddie King, Furry Lewis, Albert King, Delaney and Bonnie, the Staple Singers, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Leon Russell, and many others. He was asked by Beatle George Harrison to help organize the 1971 Bangladesh Concert at Madison Square Garden. Nix's stories of living at George Harrison's mansion in England make for especially good reading. Included in this memoir are dozens of revealing photographs taken by Nix of the extraordinary musicians with whom he worked.
