Professor Longhair 100 -- December 19, 2018

Professor Longhair, Harry Byrd, was one of the great singers and pianists from New Orleans.  He influenced many younger musicians like Allen Toussaint and Doctor John.

Allen Toussaint, RIP -- November 12, 2015

I was sad to learn about the passing of Allen Toussaint, great composer, performer and producer from New Orleans.  I remember when he worked with the Meters.  He later produced all sorts of acts.  He did a lot to raise money after Hurricane Katrina.
