Topic: New Ernie Hawkins CD out

[Michael Kuehn]

I just received Ernie's new CD 'Whinin' Boy' in the mail today. Ernie's playing with a tasty backup group of washboard, bass, clarinet, harmonica, trombone, tuba, and trumpet. I've only listened through once, so not quite enough for a full-blown review yet, but just had to spread the news. The arrangements are just great. Some of the cuts: "Makin' Whoopie," "Basin Street Blues," Blue Skies," "There is a Table in Heaven." Check it out if you can.

Im halfway through it as I type.
The song selection, the arraingments, the playing.... NICE.
 One song w/ Ernie on ukelele as well.
Like a walk down Bouboun Street (without getting your feet wet).
I smell a Grammy
