The mother-in-law man

"Ernie K-Doe (Ernest Kador) is one of the legendary figures in New Orleans rhythm and blues who made his mark thanks to the unparallelled skills of songwriter, producer, and pianist Allen Toussaint ... It's fun music. His roots are clearly in gospel gospel music, and his always energetic, slightly nasal vocals boast an ability to stretch a note to make maximum impact ... Ernie K-Doe's larger-than-life persona is ensconced in the New Orleans R&B legacy. The Mother-in-Law Man features decent liner notes but no sideman or session credits; however, the core collaborations with Toussaint are all here".
