Add a CommentA bit bare bones - just the piano - for most of it. I prefer other CD's of his where he plays with a band
A posthumous release of tunes recorded for a record that was to be released prior to his death. Also includes some tracks from solo sessions in 2013. Worth a listen.
"He was an American original, and American Tunes functions as a lovely coda to a legendary career." Stephen Thomas Erlewine - AllMusic
Beautiful. A genre-spanning final album. It closes with Toussaint's last recording before he passed away, a stunningly moving cover of Paul Simon's "America Tune".
