Dedicated, the title of Steve Cropper's all-star celebration of seminal soul guitarist Lowman "Pete" Pauling and his 50s-early 60s group The "5" Royales, says it all about the legendary Stax musician's lifelong devotion to the life transforming power of soul music. A Rock and Roll Hall of Famer for his groundbreaking guitar work with Booker T. and the MG's, Cropper likes to say that he's had four or five careers, all of which helped shape and redefine the meaning of the term "R&B." This latest incarnation features Cropper jamming through selections from The "5" Royales catalog with star guests such as B.B King, Brian May, Steve Winwood, John Popper, Bettye LaVette, Lucinda Williams, Sharon Jones, Shemekia Copeland, Delbert McClinton, Willie Jones and Buddy Miller.
