In 1978, my grandmother gave me her 1968 Buick Riviera for my first car. She also gave me her favorite road song--"Green Onions"--which she said the dealer gave her for the 8-track in that car when she bought it. It was olive gold with a champagne-colored top, carpets, and damask seats; the padded dash was the same green as the exterior; big chrome wheels and bumpers rounded out the beautiful package. Before that, I was lucky to have heard the band play "Green Onions" and "Time is Tight" when they came to town to open for Creedence Clearwater Revival in the summer of 1970. This has been an enjoyable and informative interview about the making of an immortal classic, and I thank you two gentlemen for bringing it to us.

As a little kid, I would literally cry and say , “Daddy you didn’t even give it a chance’. And he would say ‘Lil Princess, I know what I’m listening for’ . I’d ask him if I could have the ones from the tossed pole and he would say yes. I’d take them in my room and listen to every single one, all the way through. I just felt for the people that had made the song and they didn’t get heard! Needless to say. I eventually grew to understand that he was masterful at what he did. And yes, the group ‘Tbe Mad Lads” were named after him!!
