Never got a mention during the performance.
I know there were a million idols up there on that stage, but it did my heart especially good to see Little Richard up there smiling and enjoying himself.

Since we can barely hear Booker T. Jones's lead keyboards, that might explain why. A lot of guitar star-power on that stage incl. original Booker T & the MGs guitarist Steve Cropper who gets his solo due that night. But honestly, the number of folks, albeit superstars, up on that stage looked like the line to a men's bathroom between acts at a mid-1970s arena rock concert.
Little Richard,Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Keith Richards, etc. this has got to be the closest of heaven on earth by talented musicians! Or as I tell everyone hey baby it don’t get no better

Lewie Steinberg, co-writer of "Green Onions" , original bassist for Booker T. and the MGs, and recorded on this instrumental in 1962 has no mention in this caption as part of the band. He is present on stage along with Duck playing bass but gets no mention. Steinberg is on the far left near Booker T. who's on organ.
Only one word " Priceless " !!

in his defence, he is/was the musical director of the annual R&RHOF festivities.
Wtf Why didn't he call out don the duck I mean it was his song wow Huh. I met the duck at the hard rock hotel IN 95-96 where I was working. He had stopped using the pipe cause he got throat cancer. We developed a friendship and used to go out to sand dollar blues lounge here in Las Vegas . What a great guy never let the fame get to him Just a good ole boy to the end . Surely missed. We talked about Delaney Bramlett whose daughter Bekka and susan I went to high school with in an LA suburb. And how Delaney should Be INDUCTED to hall of fame also. I was so young and the internet wasn't even really big yet yet always a fan of sam and dave I never knew he played all those great 60s show with them. Those videos are sooo great Man SAm AND dave and booker t and the mgs on that 1967 stax Europe show were the best ever. If I hadn't been soo young and known soo little of his music Id a asked him about touring with SAm and Dave, but maybe he liked me cause like ronnie van zant wrote. Don't ask me no questions and I wont tell U NO lies. The duck was definitely one of the greatest bass players ever . Told me hed never play anything but a FENDER not even ricky.

What a mess! It’s inaudible! The musicians are having fun, but I’m bored ! Green onions is GREEN ONIONS : Booker T on organ, Cropper on guitar, Steinberg on bass, and Jackson Jr on drums

Too many cooks. Let Booker and "Play itt Steve" do their thing.
Does Paul Shaffer ‘always’ have to talk? Don’t remember there ever being vocals in the ‘instrumental’ hit, Green Onions. 🤔🤭😀
thanks I'll have to check that out!
They should have all sat down and let the MG's play(of course keep Johnny Cash for a little rhythm support).

The obvious problem with these "all-star jams" is that everyone is playing on top of everyone else totally ruining what could otherwise be amazing solos...they should agree ahead of time who takes solos where...I've never heard such an amazing group of pros sound so amateurish. Now if you want to hear an AMAZING all-star jam, check out Prince's otherworldly solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."

never seen so much talent on one stage , to bad the sound guy did not have the lines marked.
That's Johnny Cash alright. He was also inducted that year. This jam session was a rather awkward affair. They tried to do Big River but Johnny was the only one who knew it it seemed, and in the recent biography Rosanne Cash remembered with great amusement how Johnny found himself also jamming to Purple Haze (because Hendrix was also inducted).
