About New Orleans Suspects

If there’s any doubt the New Orleans Suspects are the best kind of throwback, check the funky, jubilant version of the traditional hymn “Jesus on the Mainline” that closes their debut CD. The band pulls out everything to make the tune percolate, including a rollicking C.R. Gruver piano solo (which works in a Fess reference or two), drummer Willie Green’s second-lining and one of Reggie Scanlan’s typically supple basslines. Topping that are plenty of handclaps and call-and-response vocals, assuring us that Jesus will give you all you need if you just get him on the telephone. But then you realize .
