Hi Michael That's a timely show for me: I just finished reading John Swenson's New Atlantis, a great book about musicians in NO and how they dealt with Katrina's aftermath | |

Deke is great. He takes Enon, Ohio's Crazy Joe Tritschler with him for some trio gigs where Deke,Joe and Sugarballs all switch instruments throughout their sets. | |

Michael says it correctly: tuːseɪnt/ | |
|
Sat. 9/24/11 12:21pm
Fine Wine:
there's how it SHOULD be pronounced and there's how it IS pronounced. i was basing my pronunciation on the name he used at the beginning of his career: TOUSAN. | |

glenn:
5 packs a day? i'm surprised he can sing, much less breathe. | |

T-Zero:
Ah! Well, you would know better than I, FW. Thanks! | |

Sat. 9/24/11 12:24pm
Fine Wine:
One big revelation from Tousan was the etymology of DEESU and SANSU, two of his record labels: creole slang for"gimme 10 cents" and "gimme 5 cents," respectively. | |

T-Zero:
drr: I know he has a lot of tats but never noticed what the neck tat says. | |

I think it's the name of his kid...just one of those things that 'seemed like a good idea at the time'. | |
|
Sat. 9/24/11 12:36pm
glenn:
neck tattoos are NEVER EVER a good idea. | |
|
Sat. 9/24/11 12:37pm
T-Zero:
Oh. Yeah. That's right. It says "Mercy". But I don't know why that's unfortunate. | |

Hackensack Slim:
Arch Hall was good when playing his own songs. They got bad when playing long versions of Stormy Monday, etc. Dr Ike usually prevents that kind of behavior. He must have been having dinner at the time. It was a good opportunity to get some fresh air. | |

Great show, Michael. I can back you up on the fact that Gaylord said the funniest thing ever uttered... Allen Toussaint also set us up for some good laughs with his observations on Cosimo Matassa's late 50s/early 60s wardrobe. | |

Great show, as usual. Michael, your observation about the equipment the guys often used is perfect. I cringe when I see one of those stupid pegless bass guitars, the worst! | |
