dbomberger Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Guess I'd have to go with Jerry Jeff Walker's Mr. Bojangles, written in or soon after meeting Mr. Bojangles in the "First Precinct Jail". Many others have covered it, but I like Jerry Jeff's version best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted August 30, 2014 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2014 Always thought he was but you had me wondering, yes, 1967, Baton Rouge LA. Don't forget Buddy guy either, although more of a Chicago blues I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennie Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 New Orleans Piano -- CDProfessor Longhair1972/1989 Atlantic JazzProfessor Longhair is the fountainhead of New Orleans R&B, and NEW ORLEANS PIANO is one of the style's essential documents. It contains recordings 'Fess made for Atlantic in the late 1940s/early '50s, some of his finest sessions. This collection wasn't released until 1972, but it surely had a profound effect on every young pianist who heard it; on Longhair's signature song, "Tipitina," and others, the piano king's loose-limbed, rolling piano lines, organically polyrhythmic second-line grooves, and rough, quirky vocals add up to a jubilant, seamless style that's simultaneously vibrant and unhurried. 'Fess's trademark whistling atop the insistent piano figure of "Mardi Gras in New Orleans" remains one of the most vivid sonic evocations of party time in the Crescent City.Track Listing1.

Dennie Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Michael Doucet & Cajun Brew -- CDMichael Doucet & Cajun Brew1987 Rounder RecordsGreat musicians and great fun., March 11, 2003By Stephen R. Parrish (Milledgeville, GA USA) - See all my reviews(REAL NAME)Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Michael Doucet & Cajun Brew (Audio CD)I can't stop listening to this disk though I've had it for a decade but haven't payed much attention. Started out to make a Mardi Gras disk for a party this year and this knocked me off my feet now that I finally really listened. Sonny Landreth produces and plays. Richard Thompson was dragged from Jazz Fest. Just a bunch of musicians that love cajun music getting together and having fun, mostly with non-traditional stuff but the playing is tight and the whole thing really smokes. Was She a Woman or a Man is surreal.1. Wooly Bully2. Bayou Pom Pom3. Un Autre Soir Ennuyant (Another Lonely Night)4. Hey, Good Lookin' (Hé 'Tite Fille)5. Last Wednesday Night (Mercredi Soir Passé)6. Louie, Louie7. Woman or a Man?8. Pauline9. Zydeco Boogaloo10. Like a Real Cajun (Comme un Vrai Cajun)11. J'Ai Passé Devant Ta Porte (I Passed by Your Door)12. Do You Want to Dance?
