With Nawlins Callin’, King has created a suite of songs inspired by the rich musical culture of the old French Quarter, conveying aspects of romance, melancholy and wonderment with fresh arrangements and melodies that trumpets a rebirth. King and his musicians have succeeded in conjuring a fresh adult pop album laced with authentic jazz, classical and blues sensibilities. King re-invents some classics like “You Don’t Know Me.” Among the many treasures of Nawlins Callin’ is a funky new rendition of "Basin Street" in which his guitar sores the way Louis Armstrong’s trumpet once did. The multi-talented King plays piano and sings accompanied by a string quartet on the beautifully arranged original composition “When You’re A Clown,” an instant standard which is sure to be covered by other artists for years to come. ~Review by Tammy26
