Legend RIP, Fess. Thank You!

[@lisarainbow9703]

"Big Chief" is another great Professor Longhair song...

[@marybaillie8907]

Wonderful. Longhair had an amazing piano style that included rumba, mambo and calypso. His style was influenced by the fact he learned on a piano that was missing keys. Great tune, love the horns and piano blend. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and John. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@adamdunbar8260]

Mr. Chu knows his s×@t. In that New Orleans vibe Longhair is up with the all time greats. The Marsalis and Neville families, Iry LeJuene, Dr. John, Clifton Chenier and maybe the best producer artist of all time Allen Toussaint. Throw The Meters in there and almost every significant jazz musician in history and the history of American music goes through New Orleans and the whole Delta area.

[@darrellpetersen133]

he's the root of New Orleans piano. His voice is so off-the-wall. A good decade before Elvis. He was "rediscovered" several times.

[@davebzen795]

John- This is a very interesting and enjoyable submission. I have heard a few tunes from Professor Longhair but not in quite some time. Well done John and Harri.

[@samfulford5811]

Good job checking him out

[@luchorios5663]

You really gotta be in new orleans to really understand that music...preferrably next Tuesday...my homey wasnt kiddin when he said you GOTTA GO see the Mardi Gras !

[@debbiechang5781]

This was a great choice John. You are extremely knowledgeable and I love hearing these interesting facts about so many artists. Thanks to Harri as well. 🌺✌️

[@mickworden8713]

His history is quite amazing. He fought in WW2 and had his head shaved like most GIs. Then when he came back he just let it grow and had a good career playing with different bands and was one ot the inventors of biggie woogie..

[@allisterfiend_2112]

Ahhh...Tipitina's, I remember going there a few times to see some bands. This song is a Mardi Gras staple in New Orleans. It's always on someones stereo/radio along the parade route.

[@Cynthia...]

Excellent John! I am pretty sure I have not heard it before but I love the vibe it gives off.

[@pvank1799]

The Fess! It's N'awlin's music.

[@vrvaughn]

Look for an album called Crawfish Fiesta…. It’s here on KZbin…

[@pvank1799]

Paul McCartney recorded an album in New Orleans with Allen Toussaint so I'm sure that is where he met Longhair,

[@1dkappe]

New Orleans music goes back so far. The godfathers go back hundreds of years. Louis Armstrong was a huge figure. There are hundreds of legendary musicians playing every weekend. So many different genres. I really like Irma Thomas, but there are so many more.

[@bigjay123]

I love that distorted Honkey Tonk piano you know It's too bad nobody ever thinks about these artists until Mardi Gras season

[@joeboucher695]

I'm glad you included "Tipitina." "Mardi Gras in NewOrleans" is great but you'd never know from that version that he's famous for being a piano player. Not a bad version but not really representative of Fess.

[@bakomako7607]

The Last Shadow Puppets - My Mistakes Were Made For You or The Stone Roses - I Wanna Be Adored

[@williampregeant4244]

He's backed by some of The Meters, and Dr. John introduced him, as I recollect...

[@williampregeant4244]

I'm pretty sure that Quint Davis is the guy who actually searched for and found Fess working as a janitor. Quint was working with George Wein to stage the first New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Quint has been the Jazz Fest Svengali ever since. Fess' voice never varied. When he cut his first sessions in 1949, his voice sounded the same as all the later stuff. 5 years before Elvis. They may have crossed paths...

Professor longhair was a major influence in New Orleans music. He mixed Rhumba music in with some magic gumbo. Here is a link that showns the rhumba part, slowed down by Brendan Kavanagh ( himeself no slouch). kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHyqqqyloJKXl5Y

[@richeaton5752]

You might find this interesting Harri, a Legend talking about a Legend: Allen Toussaint explains the influence of Professor Longhair on his music kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5ezo3ZmfZWphKs

[@donsailclub]

roeland influenced Fats Domino, Tipitina !well ! everybody`s sampled that, you can tell in the way he sings that nobody had schooled him different, you can`t teach talent , its a pity that other peoples ego got in the way of his recognition , ...... original

[@1dkappe]

New Orleans is the big musical melting pot of America. It casts a big shadow, way bigger than Elvis.
