Steve
Cropper takes us through 10 of the greatest songs he played on or co-wrote in
the new issue of Uncut, dated March 2015 and out now.
Cropper
recalls the stories behind Stax cuts by Booker T & The MG’s (above, with
Cropper top centre), Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett and more, as well as his
later work with John Lennon, Neil Young, Big Star and the Blues Brothers.
“Do I
practise guitar?” says Cropper. “My wife asked me that 27 years ago and I said,
‘I don’t practise! We don’t do that!’
“We might
rehearse a song we haven’t played before, but I don’t want to get too good at
this! I guess that’s where the simplicity of my playing comes from.”
The new
Uncut, dated March 2015, is out now.
