Marcia Ball – Live: Down the Road (CD)
Product Details
Marcia Ball has been a cornerstone of the Gulf Coast piano tradition since her early days in Austin's 1970s music scene, carrying the torch of Professor Longhair and Fats Domino while making that rolling, left-hand groove entirely her own. A live setting is where that tradition truly breathes, and catching Ball in full swing behind a piano is one of those experiences that reminds you why roadhouse music has endured for generations.
In over 30 years as a solo artist, Marcia Ball has built a huge, dedicated following with a series of critically acclaimed and increasing successful releases. Marcia's love of playing her soul-satisfying blend of raucous roadhouse boogie, New Orleans R&B, and intimate ballads in front of an ace static audience. DOWN THE ROAD is a marvelously boisterous Marcia Ball performance from 2004, backed by her road-tested touring band. The disc features a fans dream set list of Marcia originals from throughout her career as well her defining versions of classics like RED BEANS and LOUISIANA 1927.
