"Allen Toussaint is one of America’s greatest musical
treasures. Singer, pianist, songwriter, arranger and
producer — the New Orleans native has been making hit
records for over forty years. His massive influence on
American music reaches deep into the idioms of rhythm and
blues, pop, country, musical theater, blues and jazz." –Nyno
Record
"Induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is but the
latest achievement in the forty-plus year career of
Toussaint"--
EMI Music Publishing
President Barak Obama and Vice President Joe Biden said
about societal re-entry, from their platform page: "Reduces
Crime Recidivism by Providing Ex-Offender Supports”
