This man grooved so hard, heard him up close in a little joint in Germany when I was 14 around 1978, he had the whole room in palm of his hand. Saw him later with Kenn Lending on guitar, I wanted that spot soo bad 😁

This makes me cry, from good times remembered. For a 14yr old , my dad met with Champion Jack, next we’re invited to Champion Jacks home in Halifax England. Spent many many nights listening to Champion Jack & my dad playing together. I kinda dated his daughter Christina. OMG What I privileged kid I was. Never Never do I forget, that this Great Gentleman & His family allowed us into there home. The Gumbo & Louisiana music “ Heaven “.

This reminds me to the Fats Domino's first hit record "The Fat Man" in 1949,probably one of the first rock'n'roll records ever made. Long live to the blues!!!

This man is the foundation for so many others several of which directly took his music and simply gave these songs new lyrics. This is Professor Longhair's "Tipitina". And Fats Domino's "Fat Man" is built entirely on a Dupree song "The Junker's Blues" to name just two. And yet most people have probably ever heard this man's name. All this said, I realize that much of what developed into the more recent New Orleans style of Allan Toussaint and even Dr. John among many others is all built on a standard that Dupree was but one to develop. My hunch is that anyone finding Dupree here already knows this...

I was lucky enough to see him perform twice. As an Englishman I'm proud that he liked my country so much that he chose to spend almost two decades living here towards the end of his life. So many others were influenced by this great musician, not the least of whom was the great Fats Domino.

I saw him playing live several times: once in 1980 with singer Brenda Bell and guitarist Sonny Rhodes. I hope it hurts your british proudness not too much that Jack Dupree preferred to live in (western) Germany the last 19 years of his life and two of his neighbours had been Louisianna Red and Eric Burdon btw. Best regards from Berlin
