Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez [Happy Mardi Gras!]

Feb 24, 2009, 10:48am The Stranger Dance
There's just something about Mardi Gras - you can't help feeling good even if you're 2,000 miles away from the French Quarter. Here are some of our favorite Mardi Gras-inspired songs in honor one of our favorite holidays. We've got some of the classics by New Orleans legends like Professor Longhair , the Meters , Dr. John as well as some that are a little more under the radar like Bobby Charles , Earl King and Clifton Chenier .

Walkin' To New Orleans: Cajun Swamp Rock

Feb 19, 2009, 2:00am 30 Days Out
Walkin' To New Orleans: Cajun Swamp Rock Doug Kershaw We're taking a trip from Texas to New Orleans and plan to get there in time for Mardi Gras. Along the way, we're revisiting some of the interesting characters we've met in past years. Today we're in the dark swamps along the Atchafalaya River, but the story begins back in Texas. I remember this scene as clearly as yesterday: I'm in a small garage apartment and two music legends are sitting in my living room. Jivin' Gene Bourgeois and Johnnie Allan, both South Louisiana music legends, are doing some [...]

Bobby and The Band

Nov 13, 2008, 1:47pm For The Sake Of The Song
Bobby and The Band No, not that Bobby. I´m talking about Bobby Charles here, spilling water melon juice all over his orange sweater in the picture above. His self-titled debut album from ´72 was finally re-released (and for a nice price at that) by Rhino records UK recently. A rootsy, near-forgotten minor masterpiece with a relaxed but always funky Louisiana feel. "I saw a butterfly and I named it after you..." That´s producer and ´6th member of The Band´ John Simon on piano on the exquisite I Must Be In A Good Place Now . Official members of The Band make [...]

Vetiver: Thing Of The Past :: The Originals

Sep 10, 2008, 1:00am An Aquarium Drunkard

If you're curious in the artists behind the scenes, below are the twelve original versions beginning with Elyse Weinberg and ending with Louisiana's [...]

I Must Be In A Good Place Now

Jul 8, 2008, 5:57pm Sweetheart of the Radio
I Must Be In A Good Place Now One of my favorite records so far this year has been the Vetiver covers album 'Thing Of The Past'. The stand out track for me being their version of the Bobby Charles song 'I Must Be In A Good Place Now'. The original, taken from Charles' 1972 self-titled album, would not sound out of place on 'Music From Big Pink' or 'The Band' - indeed Charles' backing band at this time included Rick Danko, Garth Hudson and Levon Helm. MP3: Bobby Charles - I Must Be In A Good Place Now [...]

Fifty States: Tennessee

Jun 29, 2008, 1:51pm Star Maker Machine
Fifty States: Tennessee Bobby Charles: Tennessee Blues [ download ]* Doug Sahm: Tennessee Blues [ download ]* Here's two different versions of Bobby Charles' homage to Tennessee. The first can be found on his waaaaay under-appreciated 1972 self-titled LP. While there aren't individual song credits ... at least on the vinyl copy ... it's worth noting that Rick Danko, Garth Hudson, Levon Helm, and Richard Manuel of The Band all back up the Louisiana native. In fact, Danko and longtime Band co-conspirator, [...]

Bobby Charles :: 1972 Self-Titled Long Player

Jan 5, 2008, 4:31pm An Aquarium Drunkard
Mr. Bobby Charles' 1972 self-titled release may be, at times, a chore to track down (import), but such efforts are more than rewarded from the moment you press play. Like Link Wray's early seventies albums, Louisiana native Bobby Charles was making and recording music akin to the sounds The Band were exploring, up north, at [...]

Bobby Charles “Bobby Charles”

Nov 5, 2007, 4:10pm The Rising Storm
Bobby Charles “Bobby Charles” Another new favorite! Bobby Charles' self-titled debut album is a perfect ride. And fans of The Band have no excuse not to track this one down, as it features production work from Rick Danko, keys from Garth Hudson and contributions from Levon Helms, and Dr. John as well! Seriously, if you love The Band (s/t) and Music From Big Pink, this is the next record you need. Bobby Charles is a Louisiana swamp rocker with a good honest voice, something you don't find every day. You won't find songwriting like this every day [...]
