Containing some of
the best songs he's ever written, "Southern Nights" is 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 up between songs, this album
spawned at least two hits for other artists. The title track (minus the
Lennonesque rotary speaker vocal effect) was a giant hit for Glen Campbell,
and "What Do You Want The Girl To Do?" was one of several singles
on Boz Skaggs' 1976 gazillion seller "Silk Degrees" and also
recorded with some success by Bonnie Raitt. On red colored vinyl.
