Lee Dorsey - The New Lee Dorsey

The New Lee Dorsey
Amy 8011 - re-issue LP 

Lee Dorsey epitomized the loose, easy-going charm of New Orleans R&B perhaps more than any other artist of the '60s. Working with legendary Crescent City producer/writer Allen Toussaint, Dorsey typically offered good-time party tunes with a playful sense of humor and a loping, funky backbeat. Even if he's remembered chiefly for the signature hit 'Working in a Coalmine' (included here), it was a remarkably consistent and winning combination for the vast majority of his recording career. Backed by the legendary Meters, this 1966 album is packed with good humor and Soul dancers, and is an amazing introduction to the work of one of the Crescent City's finest.
