Professor Longhair invented New-Orleans Rock and Roll in 1949. He went by several names and had multiple professions.

J'adore ce type. Clint Eastwood me l'a fait découvrir dans le documentaire de Martin Scorsese sur le blues ! Très bon documentaire que je recommande.

PortoFrancoRecords is correct on the source of this clip. I have it on VHS!

I think it's in "Piano Players Rarely Ever Play Together", a documentary about Tuts Washington (an even older New Orleans piano player), Professor Longhair, and Allen Toussaint. Even if this clip is not from the movie, the movie is a treasure trove of great New Orleans piano and stories.
