For his regular gig at the Maple Leaf in New Orleans, George Porter Jr. invited guitarist Eric Krasno for an informal jam session on Monday night, offering a batch of covers, including some Meters tunes.
Highlights included a "Pungee" jam containing elements of "Cissy Strut" as well as versions of "Stand By Me" and "Ain't No Use."
"Thank you Eric Krasno for sitting in with myself, Michael Lemmler and Terrence Houston last night at the Maple Leaf Bar!" Porter wrote, namedropping the other members of his namesake Trio.
