"Rock Me Baby" had been the title song of the 2016 King Louie & LaRhonda Steele CD, and we scaled back the band here to five pieces, as on the studio recording. I wouldn't have thought we could top that earlier version, but I think we did--it was that kind of night!

Personnel: Renato Caranto, sax; Edwin Coleman III, drums; me, Hammond B-3; Peter Dammann, guitar, and LaRhonda Steele, vocal.
