Hip Hug Her

Description

Still riding high years after the success of Green Onions, Hip Hug-Her (1967) is another 11-song solid session of Southern soul delivered by one of the best bands in the business. Hip Hug-Her finds the group diving deeper into soulful territories, no doubt aided by the addition of bassist Duck Dunn to the fold. The title track was the bands most successful single since their debut Green Onions. Their cover of The Young Rascals song Groovin’ was also a hit but other tunes such as the midtempo Motown anthem Get Ready make this one of the strongest full-lengths in the Booker T. & the MGs catalogue.
