 Booker T. & the MG's - Biography - AOL Music
As the house band at Stax Records in Memphis, Booker T. & the MG's may have been the single greatest factor in the lasting value of that label's soul music -- not to mention Southern soul as a whole.
The anchors of the Booker T. sound were Steve Cropper, whose slicing, economic riffs influenced tons of other guitar players, and Booker T. Jones himself, who provided much of the groove with his floating organ lines.
The MG's got back into the spotlight in early 1992 when they were the house band for an extravagant Bob Dylan tribute at Madison Square Garden.

MG was no exception to this, but in the pervading atmosphere it was clear that the big luxury saloons of the pre-war era would not be looked upon with favour.
This had been forced on MG, as it was unable to obtain the raw materials necessary for the original mounts, this helped to simplify the maintenance procedure, but made little difference to the handling of the car.
For the first time, an MG was equipped with bumpers fore and aft which, it was suggested, took away the slightly "cheeky" air of the earlier cars and gave the TD a more "civilised" look.

 NTP: Abstract for TR-436 - t-Butyl Alcohol)
The genetic toxicity of t -butyl alcohol was assessed by testing the ability of the chemical to induce mutations in various strains of Salmonella typhimurium and in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells, sister chromatid exchanges and chromosomal aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells, and by measuring the frequency of micronucleated erythrocytes in mouse peripheral blood.
The incidences of chronic inflammation and transitional epithelial hyperplasia of the urinary bladder were increased in 20 mg/mL males and to a lesser extent in 20 mg/mL females.
In vitro, t -butyl alcohol was negative in Salmonella typhimurium and mouse lymphoma cell mutation tests, and it did not induce sister chromatid exchanges or chromosomal aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells.

 MG Y - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The MG factory at Abingdon on Thames had grown by developing what were in essence Morris based products and they were always to be closely associated with what was to become the Nuffield Organisation (Morris, Wolseley and later Riley).
The MG 1 1/4 Litre Saloon would retain the traditional feature of separately mounted headlights at a time when Morris was integrating headlamps into the front wing and it was also to have a separate chassis under this pressed-steel bodywork, even though the trend in the industry was towards ‘unitary construction’.

 Booker T. & The MG's
While Motown's house band was probably more influential, Booker T. and the MG's were without a doubt the most famous backing band of the 60s.
Steve Cropper's tight Telecaster bursts were hugely influential, and Booker T. Jones's Hammond organ approach practically defines cool R&B. Compared to James Brown or the funk bands of the 70s, the MG's may seem unbearably tepid and polite, but if you're in the mood for subtle soul grooving, there's no one like 'em.
The MGs reunited in the late 80s or thereabouts - Alroy and I caught their act around that time - and eventually decided to record a reunion disc with Steve Jordan filling in on drums, percussion and additional guitars.

Since there is a net force downward, the downward force (mg) must have greater magnitude than the upward force (N).

Dating is imprecise on all of these tracks, and the ones by Booker T. & the MG's were done at various points throughout the 1960s, though Steve Cropper believes that most of them date from before 1967.
They were far more inclined to brassy, less imaginative frat-like rock & roll than Booker T. & the MG's, and as a consequence their half of the platter is less interesting.

 Booker T. & the MG's : The Best of Booker T. & the MG's (Stax) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Somewhat confusingly, this disc is titled identically to a CD on Atlantic that concentrates on their earlier material.
This 17-cut disc draws from 1967-1971, and includes three of their four Top 20 pop hits: "Soul Limbo," "Hang 'em High," and "Time Is Tight." This perhaps lacks a bit of the edge of their mid-'60s recordings, concentrating on loping, relaxed grooves more than biting, incisive chops.
The standard remains pretty high, though, with the interplay between Steve Cropper's guitar, Booker T. Jones' organ, and the rhythm section never less than telepathic.
