Neville Brothers - Louisiana Gumbo Unquestionably one of the greatest musical dynasties in New Orleans history, the Neville Brothers – Arthur, Cyril, Charles and Aaron – have had an immeasurable influence on popular music both at home and beyond. Emdr software for computer. While they did not officially unite as the Neville Brothers until 1977, they had all worked together at various times in the past. Each brother has participated with a who’s who list of some of the most legendary Crescent City artists and ensembles: Allen Touissant, The Meters, Wild Tchoupitoulas.
They have also had successful and storied solo careers, especially Aaron whose silky voice made “Tell It Like It Is” a smash hit in 1966, and who has dueted with Linda Ronstadt, Trisha Yearwood and others. After recording together as the Meters and as the backing band for Wild Tchoupitoulas in the 1970s, the Nevilles officially teamed up for an unsuccessful 1978 debut album. While their string of albums garnered tremendous critical acclaim and guest appearances by Keith Richards, Jerry Garcia, Carlos Santana and others, it was not until the 1989 release Yellow Moon that the Nevilles achieved the commercial success they deserved. They have since produced a series of successful albums which have kept them in the forefront of the New Orlean’s scene while building a worldwide fan club.
The slinky, mysterious gumbo groove “Voo Doo” comes from Yellow Moon, which was produced by Daniel Lanois. Lanois, who has worked with a wide range of artists from all genres, gave the album an atmospheric unity that revealed the exotic Creole roots of their music. Aaron’s trademark voice, with its fluid octave shifts that would make a Swiss yodeler jealous, soars over a subtle and funky swamp groove.
The lyrics remind us that New Orleans is really part of the Caribbean and it shares many of the African cultural elements found in Cuba and Haiti. The cultural hub of Louisiana is New Orleans, a port city that has always served as a meeting ground for sailors, travelers, journeymen, and immigrants. An entry point for the horrific slave trade, and a stone’s throw from the islands of the Caribbean, New Orleans became a center of African and Afro-Caribbean culture, a fact which has had a tremendous impact on local musical expression. Meanwhile, in the countryside, French immigrants, who were banished from the Acadian region of Nova Scotia by the British in 1755, spread their language and traditions. The indelible influence of Cajun music and culture can be felt as a sister undercurrent with the African, and both have fused together to create a unique Creole community. This collection is called Louisiana Gumbo because Creole food serves as a perfect metaphor for the spicy stew that is music in Louisiana.
Just as French cuisine meets African and Caribbean soul food in the cooking of the Pelican State, Acadian waltzes and two-steps are stirred up with African-American blues, soul and funk to create a unique musical amalgam. The primary ingredient in this southern casserole is the blues, a form that permeates local musical expression and serves as the foundation for all Louisiana musical expressions, including gospel, Dixieland, jazz, R&B, rock, funk, and soul. Louisiana’s Creole music has left an indelible mark on the entire American soundscape. The birthplace or breeding ground of jazz, zydeco, blues, and funk, American music, indeed the world’s music, would not be the same without it. If only Napoleon had known what he was giving away, he might at least have asked for a percentage of future royalties!
