Limited Edition Smokin' Hot Red Vinyl LP!
The Memphis Blues Meets the Soul of New Orleans!
Mastered by Joe Reagoso from the Official Sansu Records Tapes!

In 1978, the amazing meeting of two musical giants Albert King and Allen Toussaint was born. The two geniuses got together and recorded one of the grooviest blues and funk albums of all time, New Orleans Heat.

As the blues was going through a cultural renaissance since the late '60s, bluesmen like Albert King were in high demand. Rock, blues and urban radio stations and retailers knew a good thing, especially with New Orleans legend Allen Toussaint spearheading the project.

The LP sessions began with Allen Toussaint's classic "Get Out of My Life Woman" which shows a more funk blues rhythm groove, truly kicking off the album to a high note. Following the album up with a solid revisit on Albert King's standard "Born Under a Bad Sign," and then the Memphis blues belter "The Feeling" made this a definitive listen for both blues and rock fans alike.

More favorites abound with Albert King's fantastic lead guitar with The Meters' Leo Nocentelli and George Porter working out on tracks like "I Got the Blues" and "I Get Evil."

The team relaxes the jam with a stunning version of Ray Noble's classic "The Very Thought of You" which truly makes this a wonderful listen and a very enjoyable experience.

Friday Music is no stranger to the blues, as they are very pleased to announce for the first time on vinyl in many years, Albert King's classic New Orleans Heat featuring Allen Toussaint for the first time ever on super limited edition Friday Music Translucent Red Vinyl.

Impeccably mastered from the official Sansu Records tapes by Joe Reagoso (Johnny Winter, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker) this amazing album is also featured in its original LP album cover presentation, to further enhance your Albert King listening experience.

Truly a masterpiece in the blues…courtesy of Albert King, Allen Toussaint and your friends at Friday Music!
