Editorial Reviews

Review

With top-of-the-line recording quality, songs drawn from the very fabric of New Orleans's musical history, and a tight band featuring Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown on guitar and fiddle, this set remains quintessential Longhair-and thus quintessential New Orleans boogie piano. An added horn track (the album was originally recorded sans horns in 1974) on one song ("Mardis Gras in New Orleans") is a minor quibble. (J.T.) -- © Frank John Hadley 1993 -- From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD

Professor Longhair with Gatemouth Brown in a Nice Remix

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

There is a special musical chemistry between the piano of Professor Longhair and the guitar of Clarance Gatemouth Brown. This is a nice modern remix of the only album they recorded together, lovingly done by the original producer and recording engineers. When you hear the Professor spontaneously give Gatemouth extra solos by calling out, "Take another one, Gate," you know these two are cooking and enjoying each other's musical company. This album is a must for fans of the unique, New Orleans R&B invented by the Professor that has influenced so much contemporary music.

Fess back in the studio, after a few years sweeping floors...

I may be wrong about this, but from what I've read, the late Henry Roeland Byrd, a.k.a. Professor Longhair, did not make any new recordings from 1965 to 1972. In 1974 a French recording team arrived in the state of Louisiana to help rectify this (read the excellent liner notes enclosed). By coincidence, Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown was in town, and the resulting sessions comprise an album that for years was in Living Blues Magazine's top ten blues albums. Not released in the USA until 1985, this is the original compact disc edition of "Rock and Roll Gumbo" and is now deleted; a more recent version exists, with inferior artwork and a slightly rearranged song flow (have not heard that edition, so I cannot comment on sound quality). This is an absolutely WONDERFUL album, all the musicians shine, and nobody has a piano style, or a voice, like Fess. One of those handful of truly life-affirming albums one is occasionally blessed to stumble upon - I first heard it playing in the huge jazz and blues section of the old Tower Records on West 4th Street in Greenwich Village; the track playing was "Tipitina", and I could not BELIEVE that human beings could make sounds like this - and you could dance to it! Don't miss this recording; R.I.P., Fess.

I am a fan of New Orleans music, and who better to represent the Crescent City than the Professor! He is immortalized in Tipitina's behind the stage. This album is great and features Clarence Gatemouth Brown on guitar for a nice Texas flair. Complements my Crawfish Fiesta album :) Please note that Prof Longhair taught Dr. John to play the piano, so there you go ... Happy Listening, mates!

Great selection of songs and sounds great with nice clarity. You can really hear what everyone is doing. Gatemouth Brown’s creative and funky solos are a great compliment to Fess’ sound. If you’re a fan get this!

I was hoping strongly to like this but I don't, much. His style is repeatious(sp) and 'Rocking Pneumonia' sucks no matter who's singing it. I may get some more Professor Longhair and if I do it's coming from the library or Goodwill because I'll never spent more than a buck for his cds again. And FWIW, I REALLY looked forward to liking him.

Best fess recording Ive heard! Strongly suggested. Always considered myself a guitar aficionado and Gatemouth's runs hereon are sweet but the keyboard work is second to none! This is about the only Piano player that I could listen to repeatedly...and I do! The sound quality is lacking on some of the other discs but not here.

What can you say. The Prof was a God. This album is his best so if you want to get what he was about then buy this. Sound quality is excellent and has some great guitar work as a bonus from Clarence gatemouth Brown t'boot.
The professor guided many top players in their early days like Dr John for instance and is still revered in New Orleans

When you listen to this, you can hear the link between trad jazz and rock 'n' roll. His voice is great and I find the album a real pick me up. Thank you Hugh Lawrie and Desert Island discs for bringing this to my attention (one of Hugh's chosen tracks).

Really like Dr John so gave this a blast. Good album come from the west country so do hear a lot of Bluegrass & gospel. Always been a fan of southern rock just trims it down a bit.

Joyous New Orleans R & B from the early seventies. Piano is his instrument and he can't half play. Guaranteed to get your foot tapping at the very least.
