New Orleans legend Allen Toussaint has released nearly 20 albums himself but this collection explores many of his biggest fans’ versions of some of his best know works. Millie Jackson’s ‘Rolling With The Punches’ is a string drenched southern masterpiece, whilst the now famous ‘Here Come The Girls’ spotlights New Orleans Ernie K Doe. Also check Don Convay’s ‘Everything I Do Gonna Be Funky’, the Pointer Sisters ‘Yes We Can Can’ and Toussaint’s own ‘Soul Sister’. Great stuff.
