Cyril is the youngest of the Neville Brothers. The album is a tribute to the patron saint of New Orleans piano, Professor Longhair. Previously released in Limited Edition during the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage festival, Cyril has created a masterpiece of classic New Orleans material joined by Crescent City luminaries as Allen Touissant, Eddie Bo, and James Andrews.

This review is from: New Orleans Cookin (Audio CD)
I went to see the Neville Brothers recently, and was taken by a song sung by Cyril Neville, called "Tipitina." Fortunately, this is the first cut on his
solo CD called "New Orleans Cookin." The cd is a recording dedicated as a tribute to Professor Longhair, that legend of New Orleans Rhythm and Blues.
The whole album is thoroughly enjoyable, as Cyril sings with a soulfulness
that is rare in these times, and the music just flat out rocks. I love the
Neville, brothers, but I was really glad I order this solo LP from Amazon
and hope to find more such gems from his career.
