Kermit Ruffins
The Barbecue Swingers Live

---

I would like to thank God Almighty for being born and raised in this great, great city of New Orleans. I would like to thank my wife Lesbianne, and my kids Christina and Neshia. I would also like to give thanks to my first band teacher Mr. Herman Jones. And great thanks to Tom Thompson, my manager, and Mark Samuels of Basin Street Records. Last, but not least, a big, big thanks to all of the fans of the Barbecue Swingers! I hope that you get as much out of this record as I get from you each time I do a show.
