I pray to the tech support deities that I get to listen to this program now. And if it is not to be, that it archives successfully.

Thanks for remembering Red Kelly.

Hey zzz!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:20pm
Funky16Corners:

@Jeff - Had to. I can say with some confidence that Red and I exchanged emails over the years about one or more of the records in today's show. It's odd that he passed right as I had this show lined up and ready to go
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:21pm
Jeff Ash:

Yep, this show would be right in Red's wheelhouse.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:23pm

toussaint looking super smooth in the pic
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:23pm
Funky16Corners:

Oddly enough, one of the first Soul Detective entries was about us (and Dan from Home of the Groove) finding out that an artists was NOT from New Orleans
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:25pm
Funky16Corners:

It's a national disgrace that Eldridge Holmes still hasn't gotten the legit reissue treatment
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:37pm
Funky16Corners:

Willie Harper is a guy who had a pretty long discography, almost all adjacent to Toussaint, bit never really broke through to a bigger audience. he had a great voice.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:40pm
zzz:

very sweet mellow funkiness here, i like the willie + allen duet
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:41pm
Funky16Corners:

Oh yeah, VERY thick New Orleans vibe.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:51pm
Funky16Corners:

This is the single biggest (and only national) hit that Sansu had. Top 20 R&B in 1967
Avatar 3:56pm
Erica:

These Betty Harris tracks are groovy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:56pm
Funky16Corners:

This one should have been HUGE
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:56pm
Funky16Corners:

@Erica - She was (and is) great!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:57pm
Jeff Ash:

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss covered this one on their most recent (and most excellent) duet LP.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:57pm
Funky16Corners:

REALLY?!? I have to hear that!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:02pm

You`re slaying me Larry!

Betty Harris is so good, somehow I snoozed on her career until recently.

Gossip Gossip, a soul hit to my ears.

Should have been 100%
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:16pm
Funky16Corners:

That horn part is amazing
Avatar 4:16pm
Erica:

The lyrics also remind me on the name game.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:17pm
Funky16Corners:

There's a little bit of that New Orleans slang/double talk that shows up in a bunch of records
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:22pm
Funky16Corners:

Sorry 'bout that...
Avatar 4:38pm
TDK60:

Sounding great, all this rare (to me) N.O. soul. Gotta run and thanks DJ LG!

Thanks for listening!

PS: almost no basements in New Orleans, water seepage would be too much. The water filled the first floor waist or chest deep in most areas flooded due to Katrina related disaster.
