Mose Allison - PBS Soundstage 1975 

Heard a radio interview with Mose, in the early eighties. They asked what he called his musical style. He replied ,Neo New Orleans Panaramic boogie woogie

He might've looked like an elder guy in his 40s already, but once he begins to play piano and sing it's like he's sippong from the fountain of youth. Everything about this guy tells you he loves his jazz and it's like a breath of life for everyone who hears it. No wonder he lived a long life, just four days shy of his 90th birthday.

i love Mose Allison's music! Great mix of blues, jazz and Mose!

Growing up in London during the ‘Swinging Sixties’ I saw the great Georgie Fame many times in various venues. He always gave Mose a great rap and when you see the man in action it’s super clear what a HUGE influence he was on Georgie, and wonderful for all of us!!!

One of my favorite memories is listening to Mose Allison in person when he performed here in 1995.

A lyrical master. Such an economy of words that are so powerful.

Got turned on to Mose 40 some years ago. Still incredible!

I can’t get enough of this guy

I just rediscovered him today. Saw him live twice in the 70s. So happy to have rediscovered him. Amazing musicianship with equally amazing lyrics.

Lucky fans got to see this master in 1975...I was 6 yrs old and around cept a few acolytes of MA...the who edgar/j winter...Van Morrison...caught on much later...Look Here

One of a kind.

Wow! What a way to start!! I totally wasn’t expecting this blend of Ahmad Jamal and Nina Simone

The Chicago murder rate dropped whenever M O S E came to town.

Mose......the Mississippi hipster. If there was really musical justice, this guy would be up there with Ray Charles on the musical Mount Rushmore.

Whose on drums and bass?

Too cool to be Hip?
