Wild Tchoupitoulas Big Chief Got A Golden Crown
Loading...
Uploaded by boliverful1 on Oct 16, 2009
One of my all time favorite albums, the Wild Tchoupitoulas was founded by George Landry aka Big Chief Jolly. Released in 1976, it was also the start of the formation of Landry's nephews, the Neville Brothers, Art, Charles, Aaron & Cyril, respectively. The instrumentation was provided mainly by the Meters, Art & Cyril Neville, Leo Nocentelli, George Porter Jr., & Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste. The album was also produced in large part by Allen Toussaint. This is an essential part of the rich musical New Orleans heritage, and I ask if you enjoy this music, pick up the album & pass the word to keep this joyful music alive.

Wher the heck did I hear/do I find "Wild Tchoupitoulas gonna' stomp some romp"?
Or is that not the title?

I have the old vinyl, also---but got the CD, so if you need to get it, it is out there. Thanks for posting this---love it, and sharing it---Happy Mardi Gras!

@boliverful1 Yes, vinyl's superior for sure - I hope I find it too! Good to know it might be on CD though (I have looked for it over the years just to have as a back-up, but no luck so far!) Thanks again & cheers, L.

Thanks for posting these - I've had this album for over 20 years and it's still one of my favourites. Much to my chagrin, I have somehow managed to lose it very recently (like, in the last month - I have the record jacket & sleeve but no actual LP to be found)! Hopefully I recover it, or at least that it's been re-issued on CD...

@LynX1969 I do seem to recall seeing a version on cd. Vinyl's where it's at though, as I'm sure you well know. Hope you're able to retrieve it, and thanks for the comment.
