NEW ORLEANS PIANO - PROF. LONGHAIR'S RARE 1972 MINT VINYL RELEASE
ATLANTIC ORIGINAL BLUES SERIES, VOL. 2 (PRESSWELL PRESSING)
New Orleans Piano Review by Bill Dahl
13 of Professor Longhair's Atlantic sides from 1949 and 1953 are here on one glorious disc. Longhair's work for the label was famously marvelous -- this version of "Mardi Gras in New Orleans" reeks of revelry in the streets of the French Quarter, "She Walks Right In" and "Walk Your Blues Away" ride a bedrock boogie, and "In the Night" bounces atop a parade-beat shuffle groove and hard-charging saxes.
