Pianist/vocalist Mitch Woods brings together and unsung inner circle of Rock'n'Roll royalty, the original members of Fats Domino band. This band features the architects of American music, the veritable founding fathers of Rock'n'Roll who laid the musical bedrock at J&M Studios in New Orleans in the early 50s that launched so many stars.
Earl Palmer has been a drummer of choice for all the Rock'n'Roll immortals from Fats Domino and Little Richard to Sam Cooke and Ray Charles, Richie Valens and Eddie Cochran to the Everly Brothers. Herb Hardesty played sax with Fats Domino from the very beginnig and still plays with him today.
Woods reunited these legendary players along with others who still play in the Fats Domino band and composed a batch of original tunes modeled after the original Fats Domino material. Legendary producer, Dave Bartholmew (who co-wrote many of Fats' hits) came in on the project to help produce.
Along with a live performance in New Orleans featuring these legendary players, the DVD includes rare interviews and never before seen look at how the music was created in the studio. It is also the story of a younger musician and his initiation into the inner circle of the creators of the uniquely American music we call Rock'n'Roll.
This double package includes a complete Big Easy Boogie CD featuring 12 originals songs penned by Mitch Woods featuring special guests Maria Muldaur, John Mooney, and Charmaine Neville. The result is a rockin' gumbo of New Orleans rhythm & blues that is true to the roots of the Mississippi mud from which it sprang.
