about

Your Panorama track fromr August, 2014, has the feel of a hot, humid, August afternoon strut through one of the Crescent City's more
rhythmic neighborhoods. This tune, "Keep On Gwine," was popularized by the Piano Prince of New Orleans, James Booker and has been covered by countless of Booker's followers. With this offering, we hope to rank in that number.

After a four bar intro from the tuba, clarinet and accordion deliver the line in unison followed by a turn from the trombone and clarinet in harmony with counterpoint from the accordion and saxophone. Then we get Matt Perrine's take on the story with his tuba, a two-way thing from Tomas Majcherski (alto saxophone) and Charlie Halloran (trombone) followed by a chorus from accordionist Michael Ward-Bergeman before a drum break from Paul Thibodeaux and two choruses out. The climactic point comes in the second out-head when the reeds recap the line in thirds with everyone else blowing up a runway party of Rampart Street drag queens for your hot August Saturday night.
