Allen Toussaint - Tipitina and Me download song

Allen Toussaint, a Master of New Orleans Music....

Thank god there is no evidence of that prick Elvis C. any where near this.

Nice. Sounds like a combination of styles. Certainly jazz, but like a little classical with some Dr. John-type swamp pop thrown in, with perhaps a little of that other scholar, Professor Longhair, in there too. Hard to peg, this one.

Sounds like a mixture of Tipitina and St. James Infirmary. But a very good one. 

Nothing...I-MEAN-NOTHING...dances on the spine...quite like....a wicked piano.

Beethoven in there too.

ISNT THIS ASCENTION DAY?

This is Professor Longhairs Tipitina played in a minor key, with the Latin feel already in it. It has haunting feel of a Gottschalk piece in the minor mode.
