Recorded 5/2/94 at Tower Records, New Orleans, by Tony Brooke with Cory Smith. Six of the twelve tracks on "Smokin: The Sounds of New Orleans II" were from a series of New Orleans Jazz Festival live broadcasts and recordings for WWOZ-FM by Tony Brooke.
From the liner notes by John Sinclair:
"Tony Dagradi and his mighty trio with Jim Singleton and Johnny Vidacovich performed this sinewy version of the Thelonious Monk composition "Nutty" during an in-store concert at Tower Records the day after JazzFest '94. An entire program of the trio's magical ensemble improvisations can be heard on "Live At The Columns," the recent release from Turnipseed Records. "
