HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ALLEN TOUSSAINT!


Allen Toussaint at the 2007 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival

MadPriest says today is Allen Toussaint's birthday, and it's  true.  Allen is three quarters of a century old today, and he's still going strong.  Watch the video of Allen's performance of "Yes We Can" over at OCICBW....

In the video posted above, Allen performs "There's a Party Going On".  Yeah!  Allen's birthday party is going on right here at Wounded Bird and over there.  Oh, the wonders of the intertubes!

      Allen isn't showcased as he is in the video at MP's, but there is a party going on. :-)

    You still have a perfect batting average on your choice of musical selections. This is great!

      Why thank you, whiteycat. It's no longer surprising to me that you like the music videos I post. :-)
