The rediscovered tapes of Longhair's 'lost' 1971 sessions yielded some of the best recordings of his career. Along with vigorous treatments of some of his best-known songs ('Tipitina,' 'Big Chief'), many of the songs heard here are ones he'd never previously recorded. Guitarist Snooks Eaglin and drummer Zigaboo Modeliste are featured on many tracks. 1988 Grammy Award winner.
