- Description
- New Orleans\0xFFFD musical legend Deacon John takes center stage in Deacon John\0xFFFDs Jump Blues. If you\0xFFFDre not familiar with the term Jump Blues, it\0xFFFDs a combination of Big Band and R&B music that was a precursor to the Rock \0xFFFDn Roll hits in the 1950s and 60s in New Orleans. Backed by a 20-member orchestra of the Big Easy\0xFFFDs finest musicians led by Wardell Quezerque, Deacon salutes the musical pioneers of the Crescent City with performances of such classics as Nobody Knows You When You\0xFFFDre Down and Out, Let the Good Times Roll, Going Back to New Orleans and Professor Longhair\0xFFFDs signature song Tipitina. Recorded in High Definition Television (HDTV) and high resolution audio at the historic Orpheum Theater in downtown New Orleans, the legendary guitarist and vocalist is joined by Rock \0xFFFDn Roll Hall of Famer Allen Toussaint, Dr. John, blues legend Henry Butler and newcomer Teedy Boutte\0xFFFD who performs a stirring version of Piece of My Heart.
