A small and woefully inadequate tribute to Mr Toussaint, who died yesterday. He wrote these great songs and many more, and produced an even greater number of fantastic records.
"Soul Sister" - Allen Toussaint
"Fingers And Toes" - Allen Toussaint
"I'll Take A Melody" - Frankie Miller
"Freedom For The Stallion" - Lee Dorsey
"Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley" - The Mighty Diamonds
"Occapella" - Van Dyke Parks
A great loss indeed.
ReplyDeleteAnd may I also put in a memorial mention for Philthy Phil, music being a most welcolmely broad church.
