专辑简介

The year is 1994 I run a small Music jingle company with a few of my Frat brothers from Northwestern. I have started to carve my own little corner of the all powerful Cole Business. All my fathers brothers and my father are board members(Eddie, Ike, Nat, & Freddy)my cousin Natalie is the Ceo. After years of sending tunes to Babylon(Los Angeles) I get approached by a publisher...to do some tunes that Nat recorded that were not soooo famous. Since this involved players and arrangements, me and my crew decided to add some original tunes(since that is my niche)and make an album of it. 4 Years later Nat's record company suggests a trip to New Orleans to do my Hot buttered Soul Thing for the first time at the source. What you have in your hands is that project. It features The Itty Bitty Big Band from Chicago (with folks like Greg Rockingham on drums , John Harkins on Piano, Jerry Byrd on Guitar, Tom Hubbard on Bass, and Steve Cole on Sax to name a few) doing Arrangements by ed harris, Charles Harrison, III , and me Lionel Cole. The Dirty South Band features Brand New Heavy's mastermind Brady Blade and recording guru Mark Bingham who help Steal Away a Ruff and ready crew of Cajun Superstars that add the deep fried funk to the Golden Hour. Enjoy:)
