We've been meaning to catch up with Booker T. Jones since his Grammy win for the 2009 album Potato Hole--for which we interviewed him back in August '09. If you haven't heard his latest, The Road From Memphis, you're missing out, and we couldn't be happier that one of the most influential and legendary figures in the Hammond organ universe (not to mention one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet) is hip again.
 
We've received a lot of requests to repost the video content from that story, so to tide you over until we get together with Booker again (we promise it'll be soon), here they are! If you can't see the player below, CLICK HERE.
