Caught him a couple times during jazz fest, I looked and i think he has like 12 albums or something.

Anybody know of some good ones to start out with?

Sonny is great, and an awesome guy.

Live at Grant St is a great starting point

I agree 100% with the Grant St album. If you can find it, South of I-10 is also a classic.

Another vote for Grant Street. Also Levee Town and From the Reach.

Just fyi, I'm pretty certain all of the albums mentioned so far can be found on Spotify and listened to for free on a pc or laptop.

Did anyone listen to that show with George Porter and Johnny V that I posted above? Some great jamz in there.

I listened to pieces of it. Thanks for posting it. It went straight onto my iPod. Can't wait to give it a critical listening.

Edit: That auto-tune crap on You Gotta Move is awful.
