Description by OLDIES.com:
Containing some of the best songs he's ever written, Allen Toussaint's 1975 "swing for the fences" attempt at an all out masterpiece. Somewhat of a concept album, with reoccurring instrumental themes usually based on the title track popping out between songs, this album spawned at least two hits for other artists.
