From New Orleans

Blueszanger Cousin Joe (geboren als Joseph Pleasant) is geboren in New Orleans en verhuisde in de jaren 40 naar New York. Daar mengde hij zich als zanger/pianist in de jazzscene en speelde met o.a Mezz Mezrow, Sidney Bechet en Earl Bostic. In 1948 keerde hij terug naar New Orleans en legde zich toe op pianoblues. Van midden jaren 60 tot eind jaren 80 toerde hij met alle grote bluesnamen door Europa. Deze voorbeeldige box beperkt zich tot zijn beste periode (1945-1959) en laat s mans veelzijdigheid horen in opnames met Bechet, Mezrow en Bostic, maar ook met pure New Orleanse r&b!
