One of the joys of living in New Orleans, and working in the French Quarter, is seeing acts like this every day.

I was right behind the person who filmed this clip. It was a good show, but a bit of a weird crowd. In a little over a year this band has gone from a relatively unknown regional tour band to headlining act performing SNL. That must be a wild ride.

Toots is one of the few artists I can think of that can even make John Henry Deutschenforf sound funky.
And he can sound a lot like Otis...

Melody Gardot has a remarkable story if you're interested.
Be sure and check out the beard on the hipster on bass, or as we called them back in the day, hep cats.

Bram Tchaikovsky released one great, wonderful now forgotten power-pop album in '79, Strange Man, Changed Man and then faded into obscurity.
Before that Bram was with Brit rockers The Motors, which was led by ex-members of pub rockers Ducks Deluxe, whose members went on to play important roles in The Tyla Gang, Dire Straits, Rockpile (w/Nick Lowe) and Graham Parker's backing band The Rumour. Members of The Rumour included Bob Andrews who played in Brinsley Schwarz along with Nick Lowe. Which all reinforces my theory that Nick Lowe is the godfather of all great music coming from Britain in the last 40 years.

Back in the mid-early '80's I got into the whole cow-punk sound. Bands like Rank and File, the Beat Farmers, Green on Red, Jason and the Scorchers. The Long Ryders are still my favorite.

Nick Lowe's first band courtesy of the Old Grey Whistle Test.
Sorry it ends a little abruptly but there's not a lot of live Brinsley available.
