Music legend Elvis Costello journeys to New Orleans to celebrate the songbook and spirit of the hurricane-battered city’s Renaissance man, Allen Toussaint. With the Katrina-exiled Toussaint at the piano and the two gentlemen’s bands merged, their efforts yield not just a joyous musical meeting but the revelation of a profound, stoic hope and the realization of the first major post-Katrina recording session to take place not just in the city of New Orleans, but on the edge of the 9th ward. Their relationship to their music and to each other infuses this performance piece with a special tenderness that will be remembered well after New Orleans has been rebuilt.
