We have always loved Shorty since we first saw him over ten years ago in New Orleans. He is one of the best live performers going today. He and Orleans Avenue bring it every night they are on stage. He is currently touring with the Red Hot Chili Peppers (they roll into MSG next week) and here is hoping fans get into the arena early to see the best act that will be on the stage that night.
However, we have also argued he hasn't been able to transfer those skills onto a record. His studio releases have been lacking, so here is hoping he pulls it all together for Blue Note. We can't wait to see him when we head down and he closes out NOLA Jazzfest, so until then how about some live video of him and the fellas.
