{"product_id":"vu-du-menz","title":"VU-DU MENZ","description":"Amazon.com\n\nThis impressive album assures that New Orleans music will live strong and healthy into the next generation. A collaboration between a couple of once upstarts, now stalwarts of the new roots-music generation, this is good-time music. Corey Harris plays slide-steel guitar and about 90 other styles, slipping his strings between the 88 piano keys that Henry Butler dances across. On the collaborative tracks, which make up most of the album, their two instruments leave no room for others. They're tight as yarn, weaving together like a Mardi Gras Indian headdress. Each also makes solo performances. They've been compared to great partnerships like Tampa Red and Georgia Tom, but this suggests too much of a historical sound; Harris and Butler are thoroughly modern. Comparing them to Professor Longhair and Snooks Eaglin is accurate in spirit, but Vü-Dü Menz is so fun, no background is needed to enjoy it; even Martians would shake their hips to this much swing. --Robert Gordon\n\nProduct Description\n\nAn exciting acoustic collaboration between two young lions of the blues with strong New Orleans ties. Harris and Butler run the roots gamut from blues to ragtime to New Orleans funk to gospel, with diverse lyrics to match. \"Harris plays and sings the blues with joy, deep feeling and raw Delta grit. Butler is an overwhelming piano virtuoso and ferociously expressive singer\" -- Chicago Tribune\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00004R96L\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00004R96L.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Harris Corey \/ Henry Butler\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
