So incredibly true!

Thanks cuz👍

Actually, this is from a wonderful documentary called Always For Pleasure, made by Les Blank in 1978.Highly recommend it--he really captures the essence of Mardi Gras and New Orleans culture.

This celebration of authentic New Orleans music features the talent of Ivan and Ian Neville, the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, George Porter Jr., Big Chief Monk Boudreaux, Lost Bayou Ramblers Duo, 79ers Gang, and Terrence Higgins. Is Touring the Fall of 2018. Highly recommended.

The Nevilles lent their talent to the Tchoupitoulas commission of their renditions of Nawlins classics (& their OWN classics) to vinyl. The Nevilles would be the 1st to tell you they are NOT The Wild Tchoupitoulas and God rest the souls of George "Big Chief Jolly" Landry, Art Neville & Charles Neville.

Their uncle is Big Chief Jolly (George Landry) . That’s the connection I think y’all were looking for. I know this post hella old but just for anyone that comes by this is the connection.

Wild tchoupitoulas is the name for a mardigras tribe ,it’s the local tribe for Neville bros

Lol it's still there

It is - It's called Meet De Boys on The Battlefront

I hear Aiko Aiko.

I know this is old, but it's near the top of the comments so I want to clarify. The big chief singing is their uncle. They were always part of this culture. Most of New Orleans's unique musical history comes straight out of the neighborhoods and long family musical traditions

BIG CHIEF JOLLY & THE WILD TCHOUPITOULAS Are A MARDI GRAS INDIAN Tribe..What you have here are The Original METERS The Late ART NEVILLE JOSEPH ZIGABOO MODELISTE GEORGE PORTER JR. CYRIL NEVILLE LEO NOCENTELLI and The NEVILLE BROTHERS...ART AARON The Late CHARLES NEVILLE and CYRIL NEVILLE Featuring IVAN NEVILLE Of DUMPSTAFUNK...After this Coloboration for This Classic MARDI GRAS Album..The Late Uncle BIG CHIEF JOLLY Encourage The Brothers to Come Together and Form The Funk Band We Know Today as The NEVILLE BROTHERS BAND...ART AARON CHARLES and CYRIL...MARDI GRAS 2024 To The World...HEYYYY MAMA...Love&Peace luv ya byo eJ ❤😊❤

In Finnish = potku perseeseen

you stoopid hahaha. That's hilarious

I never noticed how similar it sounds to those punky Beastie Boys,, hahahah. I'd imagine those East Coast kids woulda never gone back if they'd come down here & jammed w/ Nola's Indians 🎹🎧🎯🍺🍸

LOL. Luv ya Nola. mwah

+Brian J This is a clip from one of the amazing documentaries, many of them about music, made by Les Blank, (1978), Always for Pleasure.

That's what's up and be proud to be the Aboriginal of america..your are a direct descendants of the so called black Indian who the u.s.a labeled negroes,black and colored...I call them the original/Aboriginal people of America. that's who we are and many of us have african descent.

Almost certainly. It's a point of pride.

Yes they did

Not almost...absolutely!! Most Indians start sewing their suits for the next year the day after Mardi Gras!! The bead work is incredibly ornate and detailed and takes months and months, not to mention the feathers!

Yes my uncle had on a white suit

George "Big Chief Jolly" Landry... uncle to The Neville Brothers.

Wes Collins I’m six years late but what the hell are you talking about? The Neville Brothers were/still is cool their whole career

Woah bold statement
