There is not enough awe on this planet to send to this track, this man, this day in 1977. The Bayou Maharajah. The Piano Prince of New Orleans. #Jamesbooker #neworleans

A classic Michael P. Smith photo of James Booker singing and playing the piano at Jazzfest. He's wearing an eye patch and a jacket with a crazy design, and has a huge smile on his face. He's accompanied by a bassist and drummer.
Saturday November 8th is the 42nd anniversary of the passing of James Booker. Dr. John called him "the best black, gay, one-eyed junkie piano genius New Orleans has ever produced." On the next Crescent City Connection: an astounding hour of primo Booker […]

This great man once walked on the same planet we're on. There's hope. #jamesbooker #musiciansky #neworleans

#JamesBooker was a freakishly brilliant pianist from #NewOrleans.

Booker never got to make too much recorded music.
Here is a one example of his brilliance.
