Rick Allen • B3 King Of New Orleans



Throughout his career, sideman Rick Allen has played Hammond B3 organ with rock and blues legends. While still in high school, he was hired by Leon Russell’s guitarist Don Preston to play teen dances in East L.A. before moving up the ranks by playing the music he loved. Whether in the studio with Sonny Boy Williamson or Dr. John, in a Detroit lounge with Howlin' Wolf, or on cross-country tours with The Doobie Brothers, The Beach Boys, Linda Ronstadt, Loggins and Messina, Rod Stewart and Boz Skaggs, culminating in a gig at Madison Square Garden and his first visit to NYC, Rick has played every kind of venue and traveled many roads.

While still in his teens, Rick backed up The Coasters, Johnny “Guitar” Watson, The Penguins of “Earth Angel” fame, and Jimmy Clanton. A few years later, he played sessions for major label rock and blues artists in Los Angeles and New Orleans: Etta James, Delaney & Bonnie Bramlett, Ernie K-Doe (Mr. “Mother-In-Law”), Freddy Fender, King Floyd, Allen Toussaint and The Dukes of Dixieland on their Grammy-nominated album, Gloryland.

A lo largo de su carrera, el compañero Rick Allen ha tocado el órgano Hammond B3 con leyendas del rock y el blues. Cuando aún estaba en el instituto, fue contratado por el guitarrista de Leon Russell, Don Preston, para tocar en bailes adolescentes en el este de Los Ángeles antes de ascender de rango tocando la música que le gustaba. Ya sea en el estudio con Sonny Boy Williamson o Dr. John, en un salón de Detroit con Howlin' Wolf, o en giras por todo el país con The Doobie Brothers, The Beach Boys, Linda Ronstadt, Loggins y Messina, Rod Stewart y Boz Skaggs, culminando en un concierto en el Madison Square Garden y su primera visita a la ciudad de Nueva York, Rick ha tocado en todo tipo de lugares y ha recorrido muchos caminos.

Cuando aún era adolescente, Rick apoyó a The Coasters, a Johnny "Guitar" Watson, a los Pingüinos de la fama de "Earth Angel" y a Jimmy Clanton. Unos años más tarde, tocó en sesiones de los principales sellos de rock y blues en Los Ángeles y Nueva Orleans: Etta James, Delaney & Bonnie Bramlett, Ernie K-Doe (Mr. "Mother-In-Law"), Freddy Fender, King Floyd, Allen Toussaint y The Dukes of Dixieland en su álbum nominado a los Grammy, Gloryland.
