Legendary New Orleans pianist and songwriter Allen Toussaint has died in Madrid while on tour.
On this day last August, several people in Galatoire’s stopped by his table for a handshake and photo. He was always cordial and approachable. And I’m pretty sure he knew I was taking his picture in the mirror across the dining room.

Toussaint was a really good musician. And all I can say, Lisa, is that you really get around.
I take that as a compliment!
You ARE a social butterfly, Miss Lisa, in the very best sense of the word. I feel a little sad about Toussaint, though. None of us lives forever, but he had such a gift. Thanks for the heads-up.
