Ronnie Kole Trio - New Orleans' Newest Sound (1970) [Hi-Res]

The history of New Orleans is inextricably linked to its unique cultural identity, shaped by French and Spanish influences, as well as pivotal historical events like the Battle of New Orleans in 1815. This rich atmosphere is reflected in the work of virtuous pianist Ronnie Kole. As a prominent civic figure and philanthropist, Kole is deeply involved in the city's life, ranging from tourism promotion to supporting local sports teams. His ensemble, the Ronnie Kole Trio—featuring drummer Dickie Taylor and bassist Everett Link, Jr.—represents the contemporary "New Orleans' Newest Sound." Based at a famous venue on Bourbon Street, the trio blends the traditional spirit of the city with progressive musical artistry.
