Another one gone. I think he was the last of the old New Orleans guys.

Never heard of him.
Was he a Fats Domino protegé?
The way he moves behind the piano is exactly the same.
RIP. I heard of him cos The Band covered this song.
Respect for the Frogman. He was one of the old guard.

He was one of the old New Orleans R&B pianists, and I think that was just the style if they were singing. But Fats was 9 years older and could have been an influence.
Ever heard this? I posted it here last month on his birthday.

Here's a much less known track from the late 60s that I always liked. Issued on one of Huey P. Meaux's labels.
