Toussaint, Allen
Happy Times in New Orleans
CD
Toussaint’s seminal recordings, featuring a variety of the great R&B sides he made for different labels such as RCA, Minit and Seville. This is the material upon which Toussaint’s reputation was built. Here his spirited renditions are full of the bouncing and rolling piano/organ licks that are the calling card of New Orleans keyboard style. These sensational recordings also feature a virtual who’s who of fabulous musicians from the Crescent City scene, including Alvin "Red" Taylor, Justin Adams, Roy Montrell, Frank Fields, and Charles "Hungry" Williams, among others.
