This is quite a time. Maybe the most unique time ever for me. But I can't thank everyone enough for what they've done for New Orleans. We have really gotten a chance to find out who we are at a time like this. And where we are. We're in the greatest country in the world.
More Quotes from Allen Toussaint:
It was the real thing ... When we were recording, sometimes we'd make a 'human fade' - we would just play softer and softer. We didnt have any overdubbing. When one guy took a solo, the other guys would stand up and snap their fingers and dance around the studio. We were having a wonderful time.Allen Toussaint
