James Booker, the “greatest and craziest piano genius” born in New Orleans. Covering the origins of the legend (1954–62), from his debut song at age 14 to his only U.S. hit, “Gonzo.” This is the essential warm-up album before you witness his intense life story on the big screen!\n\nNew Orleans’ greatest artist. James Booker, the maverick whom his close friend Dr. John dubbed the “one-eyed junkie piano genius.” If you’re planning to watch the highly anticipated documentary film *Bayou Maharajah* (soon to be released), use this album to prepare! This album comprehensively covers his early career (1954–1962), from his 1954 debut single “Doing the Ham Bone”—released when he was just 14—to the 1960 organ jam “Gonzo,” which served as a major inspiration for Hunter S. Thompson. It vividly captures the journey of a classical prodigy encountering the gritty R\u0026amp;B of New Orleans and evolving into the one-of-a-kind “By You Maharaja.” On a lazy afternoon off, grab a drink and lose yourself in his raw yet boundless talent.\nCommentary: All Days Editorial Department\u003c\/old\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
