The Mighty Alen Toussaint <\/strong><\/p>\n

Greetings all.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since it’s Christmas week and I’m taking some time to chill with the fam, I thought I would bring a couple of things up from the archive for your aural delectation.<\/p>\n

What you see before you is a kind of ‘virtual boxed set’, the full, five part History of Allen Toussaint<\/strong> series that appeared on the Funky16Corners Radio Show<\/strong> at the end of 2015, right after Toussaint passed, and then from earlier this year.<\/p>\n

If you didn’t catch it the first time around, and you dig Toussaint and Toussaint-related sounds, you couldn’t do any better than to pull down the ones and zeroes and spend an afternoon soaking in the sounds.<\/p>\n

So dig it, and I’ll see you all later.<\/p>\n

Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n

Larry<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n
