about

"Allen Toussaint In The Rain" evolved out of learning a bunch of Kurt Weill tunes and having Johnny Johnson stuck in my ear. When I started on this song, what came out sounded so AT that I made the sound about him. Suffering as all saints do. I even put a flanger on the vocal a la AT version of Southern Nights. Lovely Wurli playing from Amy Trail who spent years as a Pat O'Brian's piano player before moving back to Idaho.

lyrics

Allen Toussaint In The Rain
the last refrain I thought I heard was buried in the noise a mix of tango melodies, waterfalls, and laughter
I can’t break the codes
I'll never understand those boys hot liquor in the veins of men who rot before they ripen cane poles on the levee fishing the years away still 1937 on the river a barge goes by, the bargemen wave the pole stays in the water the fish stay where they otter
servicing the antique world with melancholy bait the melodies of days gone by sugar cane molasses can't go back, there is no place, that I ever belonged Deep breath, long look say goodbye barely been here all along Allen Toussaint in the rain, suffering like all saints do Allen Toussaint in the rain walking towards the sea in his sandals yes we have seen better days of feeding our revenge the young at heart take refuge in counting our offenses
