after street level i started "doug duffey's new orleans rhythm and blues revue" -which was not a revue at all- we did all r&b/soul/old new orleans hits/ cover material. we started on bourbon street [as paid rehearsal] then graduated to the regular clubs in town [muddy waters, etc] we did shows around louisiana, and did some cruise ship gigs [cancun, cozumel, belize]. i was also going back and forth from new orleans to shreveport working with jerry beach, or blues singer betty lewis, or drummer brady blade. BUT doing cover tunes- even if they were some of my favourite old new orleans/R&B/soul hits- was NOT what i wanted to do... again. it was a means to an end... but the ends still didnt meet so i decided to go solo!
