Gator's got your granny: Tony Joe White, who put on my favorite show at JazzFest this year, turns 64 today....Band Southern Culture On The Skids pays tribute to White in their 1996 song "Voodoo Cadillac" (arguably the best listening song ever recorded for cruising, with your baby of course, in a 2002 Champagne DeVille) with the first stanza lyric: "Come on baby, take a ride with me / Up the Mississippi, down to New Orleans / Tuck and roll, FM stereo / Got some Tony Joe White on my radio". Here's a youtube video of TJW at JazzFest this year:
The Paul Brown Monday Night Jazz Series continues tonight at Bushnell Park in Hartford with the Kelly Sheppard Quintet opening at 6pm followed by the Paul West Quintet at 7:30pm.
