    "comment": "Happy Thursday and welcome to The Afternoon Show with the knowledgeable Larry Mizell, Jr. and esteemed producer Sharlese.  On OG Thursday today, we are remembering the work of legendary guitarist, producer, and songwriter Steve Cropper, who has died at age 84: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/arts/music/steve-cropper-dead.html  Thanks soo much for being here with us today!\n--\nSteve Cropper co-wrote this classic with Eddie Floyd. \n--\n\"Knock On Wood\" was written in the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee (now The National Civil Rights Museum). Steve Cropper stated in interviews that there was a lightning storm the night that he and Eddie wrote the song, hence the lyrics 'It's like thunder, lightning, The way you love me is frightening'. The song was based on another song co-written by Cropper, the Wilson Pickett version of \"In the Midnight Hour\" (1965), having the same chord progression \"only played in reverse\".",
