Boom Boom Boom Boom by Steven Gowin
Boom Boom Boom Boom by Steven Gowin “You only just watch them damned cowboy shows and drink that cheap beer,” Lydia crabbed at Little Jessie. “Whyn't ya get out and do sumpin'? See a show that ain't Rawhide. Make a friend; don't be a worm no more.” Little Jessie'd spent 30 years taking orders in the Canal Zone with only brief visits home. He'd seen a fellow gamble away his life's savings, survived a near fatal explosion, and witnessed a man crushed and drowned in the Miraflores locks. “You like guitar?” Lydia badgered Jessie, when all he really wanted was a cold PBR, Gunsmoke, and some peace. “I said, guitar what you like?” Jessie nodded and said, “Sure enough, and squeeze box and saxophone, why?” “Why??? Why is cause I ain't standin' another night of you and them cowboys.” Lydia was one of those ladies who wears a big hat to church on Sunday, every Sunday. She said, “I know you know I'm right.” Jessie didn't care about right. He only cared about meanness and bossing and lack thereof. But Lydia was worse and worse. He couldn't do anything, say anything, without her telling him what was wrong with him. The next evening, holding the ticket Lydia'd bought him in hand, Jessie rode the 22 Fillmore across town to where the marquee flashed, John Lee's Boom BOOM R O O M ! ! ! The red and blue neon cheered Jessie, he admitted, and he liked the folks headed in wearing furs and finery and jewels. -

Fats Domino Goin' Home
“Goin’ Home” We’ll Miss You, Fats “Everybody started calling my music rock and roll, but it wasn't anything but the same rhythm and blues I'd been playing down in New Orleans.” - FATS DOMINO “As far as I know, the music makes people happy. I know it makes me happy.” - FATS DOMINO “Let's face it, I can't sing like Fats Domino can. I know that.” - ELVIS PRESLEY “Well, I wouldn't want to say that I started it (rock „n‟ roll), but I don't remember anyone else before me playing that kind of stuff.” - FATS DOMINO “Even if Fats didn‟t actually invent rock „n‟ roll, he was certainly responsible for accidentally inventing ska, and thus reggae … Antoine „Fats‟ Domino was definitely a great innovator, and richly deserves a much fatter entry in the history books.” – OWEN ADAMS On Tuesday, 3:30 a.m., October 24, 2017, New Orleans and the world lost a pioneering titan of rock „n‟ roll, “Fats” Domino. The popular pianist and singer-songwriter of the Lower 9th Ward was 89. During his career, this influential, yet humble performer sold more than 65 million records and had over 35 hits in the U.S. Billboard Top 40, including “Ain‟t That a Shame,” “Blueberry Hill” and “Blue Monday”. With producer and arranger Dave Bartholomew, “Fats” helped put his hometown on the rock „n‟ roll map. This shy lifelong New Orleanian influenced numerous artists including Paul McCartney and Randy Newman, who once confessed, “I was so influenced by Fats Domino that it‟s still hard for me to write a song that‟s not a New Orleans shuffle.” Domino‟s distinctive barreling triplet-based piano style, backed by a solid backbeat, was something exceptional, a step above traditional rhythm and blues. -

Obviously, these items would be a good gift idea for any occasion year-round, as well as a gift for yourself! We do not include many, if any at all, single CDs in the guide. Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out. These are in no particular order in terms of importance or release dates. -

Both outsiders coming to New Orleans such as Ornette Coleman and Cannonball Adderley and locally born musicians such as Alvin Battiste, Ellis Marsalis, and James Black have contributed to this music. These musicians have influenced later players like Steve Masakowski, Shannon Powell, and Johnny Vidacovich up to more current musicians like Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, and Christian Scott. There are multiple reasons why New Orleans modern jazz has not had a greater profile. Some of these reasons relate to the economic considerations of modern jazz. It is difficult for anyone involved in modern jazz, whether musicians, record -

People who I played with I’d pick up a little bit here and there because at that name my mother gave me. I’ve been called age I was trying to learn all I could. When I got started on guitar, Bo Diddley a little of everything over the years, but taught me how to tune the guitar to an open E. He taught me how to play the M bass background but his playing was limited, I wanted to learn more. I was Jody is a nickname. When I started recording, if hungry for knowledge on the guitar so I would hang around in the clubs and they had put Joe Williams on the record they might stuff like that.
