Tony Joe's and Elvis' versions of 'Polk Salad Annie' are totally different. Tony's is funk/swamp rock whereas Elvis' is high energy performance oriented. I love both versions.

I sawTJW about 4 years ago at the Rock-n-Bowl in New Orleans. It was excellent. Most of his songs sounded to me like a version of Polk Salad Annie. He was outside after the concert and he looked like he was in bad health. The lifestyle of a sixty's hit maker must have taken it's toll. Good luck Tony and best of health for the rest of the journey.

I saw these two in Chatanooga last weekend. TOny is a one groove guy, but it's a deep groove. Didn't need a bass player. Had his amp and two floor monitors aimed at his head, so I am guessing his hearing isn't the best. Hope he is making lots of money off of Rainy Night in Georgia.

@lalukas I was there too...and man did it pour! I've been to some wet jazz fests before but this was the worse rain storm ever. TJW was scheduled for an interview on another stage but it was canceled because of the rain storm. BTW, TJW is playing in New Orleans this Fri (4/23/2010) and at the Baton Rouge Blues Fest this Sat.I will be there. Tony is the man!
