Description
I've stayed as close as possible with my right hand to the organ solo in the original recording from 1962, and to get a full bass left hand sound I'm using a pedal tone with my thumb, in addition to the walking bass. I'm playing at around 140BPM as it is the tempo in the original recording.
The piano is an Yamaha P-120 with the jazz organ setting.
Green Onions was composed and first recorded by Booker T. and The M.G's in 1962.

I recieve questions in comments and in messages about learning playing this song so I finally put together a rather lengthy guide (actually it's a number of pages long) for learning songs and learning this song in particular.
If you would like to have my guide for learning Green Onions, just ask for it in a comment or a message here at YouTube and I'll send the guide to your YouTube message inbox.
