Red Beans & Rice and Other Rock 'N' Roll Recipes
by Johnny Otis

Rhythm-and-blues legend Johnny Otis -- whose music career spans more than fifty years -- has long delighted in cooking and cuisine. For several years he owned a deli and market (where his band played on weekends), and he especially loves the way the culture of food brings together a community of friends, cooking and eating together and trading recipes. The 108 recipes in Red Beans and Rice and Other Rock 'n' Roll Recipes draw on diverse culinary traditions from all over the world. Johnny himself offers more than twenty delectable dishes -- from Red Beans and Rice and Chicken Gumbo to Senegalese Couscous and Curried Sweet Potatoes -- and then presents equally tasty recipes from forty-five friends and relatives. Also included are Johnny's anecdotes about his friends as well as these cooks' own stories about the dishes they present. What emerges is an engaging and mouth-watering experience of community, food, and cooking. It will not only make you want to cook but will show you a great time in the process! For such a little guy, [Little Willie John+ had a humongous appetite. He always seemed to show up just at dinner time. My drummer Kansas City Bell used to call out, "Hide the neck bones quick! Here comes Little Willie John!" -- from Red Beans & Rice and Other Rock 'n' Roll Recipes
