Seriously messed up #Louisiana #GOP races to eliminate an elected office won by an #exonerated man A man imprisoned for nearly 30 years before being exonerated won a landmark #election in #NewOrleans promising to fix a #judicial system that failed him. Now, Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry & the GOP-controlled Legislature are racing to eliminate his job before he can be sworn in. #law #NOLA #USpol #LApol https://apnews.com/article/new-orleans-criminal-clerk-calvin-duncan-exonerated-d247677aa601a85cac604645d50fc739

The New Lee Dorsey by Lee Dorsey, released on Stateside in 1966. Review by Richie Unterberger Less than a year had passed between this and Lee Dorsey's previous LP, Ride Your Pony, and Allen Toussaint was again the prime creative force, writing material and co-producing. The sound, however, had definitely taken a step in a funkier direction. It's still lighthearted, though not lightweight, soul music with a New Orleans bounce, paced by the Top Ten hit "Working in a Coal Mine" and also including the Top 30 follow-up "Holy Cow." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCuWUwu1Rh8&list=RDfCuWUwu1Rh8&start_radio=1 #LeeDorsey #AllenToussaint #TheMeters #NewOrleans #Funk #Soul #Music

Ride Your Pony - Get Out Of My Life Woman by Lee Dorsey, released on Amy in 1966. Irving Lee Dorsey (December 24, 1924[1] – December 1, 1986)[2] was an American pop and R&B singer during the 1960s.

Much of his work was produced by Allen Toussaint, with instrumental backing provided by the Meters. - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b8YCdkuiBQ&list=OLAK5uy_mS4-mI0PtiRFHSKp0kAK5sYEn3rn8AFZ0 #LeeDorsey #AllenToussaint #ArtNeville #TheMeters #NewOrleans #Funk #Soul #Music

Let’s Play Fats Domino is the seventh studio album by American rock and roll pianist Fats Domino, released on Imperial Records. ...Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote "maybe it's not the best Fats Domino album ever, but as it's playing it's hard to imagine listening to anything better than this" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sze2PNx5eHc&list=PLqLObM6ZIYKdd8BKev7t9J9Hbm_s036LO&index=1 #FatsDomino #NewOrleans #RockandRoll #BoogieWoogiePiano #Music

Ya! Ya! by Lee Dorsey, released on Fury Records in 1962. Review by Greg Adams Lee Dorsey, the world's funkiest auto mechanic, topped the R&B charts in 1961 with "Ya Ya," a bit of bubblegum soul arranged by Allen Toussaint that exemplifies the sound of his early-'60s Fury recordings. Dorsey was an important and commercially successful product of the New Orleans R&B scene with a sound as distinctive as Fats Domino, and one look at the track list of Ya! Ya! tells you everything you need to know: "Eenie Meenie Mini Mo," "Ixie Dixie Pixie Pie," "Chin Chin," "Yum Yum" (et cetera). Uncluttered grooves, economical horn riffs, playground rhymes, and Dorsey's unmistakable voice add up to an appealingly simple formula that yielded one of the most enduring oldies of its era and its similar but lower-charting follow-up, "Do-Re-Mi." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_RcbQJFDlw&list=PLNLTyTGPykYgTRaqDHBifMLwuMJT5Jjh0&index=1 #LeeDorsey #AllenToussaint #NewOrleans #Soul #Music
