RIP Steve Cropper. He wrote or co-wrote songs, produced and occasionally engineered song like R&B hits as Redding’s (Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay and Mr Pitiful; on Pickett’s In the Midnight Hour and 634-5789; on Floyd’s Knock On Wood and Raise Your Hand; and Don Covay’s See Saw and Sookie Sookie.
He so much more than the guitar player in Booker T and the MGs.

I hear The Fascist is thinking of replacing Kegster with Hannibal Lecter. He could make a meal out of what the drunk leaves behind. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/02/hegseth-us-soldiers-iraq-rules-engagement
