"Born In Louisiana" from Clarence Gatemouth Brown's 'Live From Austin TX' performance. Buy it today on Amazon http://amzn.to/1djXblV or iTunes http://smarturl.it/ClarenceGateLFAT.

Suffice it to say, in all of music there was only one Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown. Gatemouth was a one-man cauldron of sonic intensity and originality unmatched by anyone before or since. Still, born in Louisiana, raised in Texas and bouncing around the Texas circuit explains a lot. Gate borrowed heavily from the Big Band sound, and his music could swing with the best of them, as he demonstrates on "Take the A Train" in this show, recorded on February 6, 1996 (the last of his four appearances on Austin City Limits).

+1 AWESOME. Seen him play back in the 80s at The Kingston Mines in Chicago. Great show. Have a good interview with him in Kenny Wayne Sheprherd's 10 Days Out Blues from The Backroads Doc. Awesome Doc if you enjoy the blues.

I love a Gate, and I love a half time shuffle. IMHO, what makes it swing is the grace notes.

He was one of the best in my opinion. This is my favorite song by Brown. One of those – ‘I gotta hear more than once’ tunes. +Gerry Lee Rozelle #Blues

That's Joe Krown on keys. He's living in New Orleans now, but is from the Boston area as far as I know. I used to get with him at Bloston blues jams at Harper's Ferry in Allston and Jonathan Swift's in Harvard Square, Cambridge. I'm pretty sure he'll be playing at WWOZ's Piano Night around the time of the Jazz & Heritage Festival. You can get his recordings at Louisiana Music Factory and request his tunes as well as Gate's on WWOZ.org.

Clearly Lil Wayne did not get his guitar "chops" from Gatemouth!

Heck after watching him play his heart out one night in Norman up on Campus Corner, we stayed while they closed, met him back at his hotel room and smoked him out while we talked and got down....together. What a guy. Truly a down home person.

He never liked being called a Bluesman but he's Blues all over.
