Lagniappe this week: Best wishes to my good friend Teedy Boutte (and the best
New Orleans singer who doesn’t live in New Orleans any more) who is getting
married this weekend in Oslo, Norway. Here she is with Deacon John doing a
couple of tunes from his “Jump Blues” cd/dvd. Be sure to check out her solo on
Piece o’ My Heart at around five minutes into the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBbdVsQB2JI.
Also Happy Birth Date to Willie Dixon, the producer, writer and performer at
Chess Records who is responsible for so much of the music I love: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQrQLvBQax0&feature=related.
