We are proud to debut the music video
directed by Henry Griffin of Complicated Life, a track from the
release Made in New Orleans: The Hurricane Tapes.
This song was originally performed by the Kinks and composed by Ray
Davies. Benjamin Jaffe arranged the song in the vernacular of Preservation
Hall and conceived this video which is a journey through New Orleans'
French Quarter. It features guest vocalist Clint Maedgen of The New
Orleans Bingo! Show delivering food from Fiorella's through the French
Quarter and culminating at Preservation Hall where the story all
began. Spread the word.
