Time After Time

Cyndia Lauper did a great interview with Brook Gladstone for the radio show On the Media. You can see video of the entire interview here. Lauper has written the music and lyrics to the new Broadway show Kinky Boots, and has a Tony nomination for it. The interview includes a clip from this 1985 performance of Time after Time by Lauper and Patti Labelle. There are not many people will the vocal power to duet with Patti Labelle, but Cyndia does it, and this is an amazing performance.

Wang Dang Doodle

Cyndi Lauper, Betty Wright, Mavis Staples and Maria Muldaur perform the Willie Dixon song "Wang Dang Doodle", with guitarists Buddy Guy and Kenny Wayne Shepherd .



This song was made popular by Koko Taylor's 1960's recording of it. Here is a clip of Taylor performing it about 20 years ago. Buddy Guy also plays guitar on this version.

Allen Toussaint

Some more music from New Orleans. I am pretty sure that Allen Toussaint is already on this blog somewhere playing piano, but I it doesn't look like he got credited. So here are some videos to rectify that situation.

"Southern Nights" - this was a big hit big hit for Glen Campbell back in 1977, but Toussaint wrote it.



"Party Going On"



Medley of "A Certain Girl", "Mother-in-law", "Fortune Teller", "Working In a Coal Mine"




Here Toussaint supports Cyndi Lauper performing "Early in the Morning".
