A special show in tribute to Allen Toussaint. Allen was a great singer and piano player, but he was best known as a songwriter and producer. I hope my tribute gives you some flavor of just how wonderful his music was-his loss to our culture is immense. For more check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_Toussaint. For info of his memorial service see http://www.nola.com/music/index.ssf/2015/11/allen_toussaint_memorial_jim...
