Album Notes & Community Reviews

Consolidating his position as a dominant force in the transition from rhythm and blues to rock and roll, the New Orleans pianist delivers a flawlessly swinging set. The tight, bouncing horn arrangements of Dave Bartholomew perfectly complement the leader's signature piano triplets and immensely affable vocal delivery. The collection serves as a prime example of the joyous, highly danceable Gulf Coast aesthetic.
