| NOTES: No one is more New Orleans than James "12" Andrews. 12's linage is thick with New Orleans R&B legends such as his grandfather Jesse Hill and his great uncle Papoose Nelson. His early instruction as a pupil of the famous guitarist and jazz historian Danny Barker shaped him into a solid Jazz player at a very young age. This new album. People Get Ready Now, is an expression of 12's ability to bring people together. The spirit of celebration which pervaded the sessions is vibrantly captured in the subsequent music. Above all, People Get Ready Now is a homage to the live institutions from which the modern music of New Orleans was born: Benevolent Societies, Jazz Funerals, Neighborhood Music Venues, Mardi Gras Indians and Spiritual Churches. These institutions not only encompass the genesis of New Orleans music but also the cultural substance that continues to keep the music relevant and alive. James "12" Andrews is as much a product of these institutions as the music itself, and he was able to assemble an amazing array of musicians to help him honor these roots. |
