Jazz Note # 8 – Pay Tribute
Allen Toussaint is one of those musicians you may have never heard of but you know his work. His collaborations run from Patti LaBelle and Otis Redding to The O’Jays and The Rolling Stones. He wrote the Grammy nominated song, “Southern Lights”, famously sung by country singer, Glen Campbell. Recently he did an album with Elvis Costello and even appeared with Cyndi Lauper on David Letterman. Songwriter, producer, musician, there isn’t a facet or genre Toussaint hasn’t touched in his forty years in the business, but what drew my attention was an album he released a couple years ago, “The Bright Mississippi.”
