(This will mean nothing to anyone who hasn’t listened to Guerrilla Cricket.)

Ooh, they could have something for every player! Maybe a bit of music as well? How about some music for each boundary and wicket too? And once you’ve gone to all that trouble, might as well get the composer(s) to compose something new for the show – perhaps comparing cricketers and, ooh I dunno, revolutionaries…

Green Onions – so named of course, because onions have the funkiest smell.

Of course, the MGs did a lot of their best work as the house band at Stax (the equivalent of the Funk Brothers over at Motown) – ‘Soul Man’ for Sam & Dave, ‘Try a Little Tenderness’ for the great Otis Redding, and, as they say, Many More.

None of those, great as they are, have ever had quite the same emotional pull, or the same ease of replication with a teaspoon in the office kitchen (remember office kitchens?) as the first few seconds of Soul Limbo….

Booker T & The MGs recorded some great tracks, of which Soul Limbo is but one.

Not least, Green Onions:

Sounds like a job for a fourth umpire.

Or a few Barmy Army songs would improve it immensely.
When Root comes back it would be awesome to hear the ‘Roooooooooot’.

Very.
Imagine being poised over those buttons for hours on end, concentrating intently, just waiting to deploy them. Imagine pushing one slightly too late and how terrible that would sound. Imagine pushing one unnecessarily. Imagine pushing the wrong one.

Agreed. How difficult would it be to have someone press a “cheer” or “ooooh” button at the relevant moment.

But how else will we know whether they are hoping to take the positives and put the opposition under pressure?
