Nocentelli, Leo

Another Side

Recorded at Cosimo Matassa's Jazz City Studio in New Orleans in the early '70s and then lost to the ages, 'Another Side' is one of Leo Nocentelli's most personal and definitive moments ever cut to tape. A mixture of funky folk and rootsy, raw emotion (think Bill Withers and James Taylor meeting Allen Toussaint at Link Wray's Three Track Shack), this previously unheard album shines like the sun on a spring day on the New Orleans fairgrounds. Backing Nocentelli is an all-star line-up of Allen Toussaint (piano), James Black (drums), George Porter Jr. (bass) and Zigaboo Modeliste (drums) of The Meters. Deeply introspective, the album features nine original songs by Nocentelli, plus a soulful rendition of Elton John's 'Your Song.' Half a century later, these recordings sound just as fresh and engaging as the day they were recorded. CD comes in digipak and includes 28-page booklet.
