My Yiddishe Mama by Andre Toussaint
My Yiddishe Mama. La Yiddishe Momme André Toussaint is neither "folk" nor (More) My Yiddishe Mama. La Yiddishe Momme André Toussaint is neither "folk" nor Bahamian. Indeed, the Haitian-born singer-guitarist immigrated to Nassau in 1953, seeking regular work, armed with a sparkling inventory of Creole-, French- and Spanish-language songs, while speaking not a word of English. Toussaint's hybrid cultural origins (a defining condition of Caribbean identity, really) made for easy conscription in the small army of international musicians working the lively Nassau club and hotel scene. A quick hop from Havana and Miami, local nightspots drew top entertainers from the United States, Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica , Martinique, and Trinidad. The crossbred pop repertoire reflected little of Bahamian folk pedigree, but affluent English-speaking tourists on tropical holiday wanted ambiance, excess, and deference to their misconceived tastes, not cultural realism. Accordingly, Toussaint is best understood as a consummate entertainer. As documented here, he expanded his repertoire to include familiar calypso, Afro-Cuban, Mexican, French, Italian, Yiddish, and American popular songs, all expertly sung in their native idioms. The recorded evidence confirms Toussaint's rare ability to inhabit his material completely, whatever its origin. Audiences seeking the benignly foreign couldn't get enough, especially as the Cuban revolution began diverting risk-averse sunbirds to more secure tourist havens. Indeed, Toussaint would continue to delight until his death in 1981.What was his secret? Toussaint possessed a crooner's silken voice, on par with Harry Belafonte, Nat King Cole, and Johnny Hartman. He also had a fine talent for language and musical mimicry, comparable to Slim Gaillard -- minus the gonzo factor. Big smile, suave cosmopolitan delivery, appealing material, a hint of romance and Afro-Latin fire, the multilingual exotic, style to spare, Toussaint had it all. His range was astounding, from the Beny Moré sabor of "Felicidad" to the R&B swing of "Little Nassau-Bahama Mama", a Chevalieresque "C'est Si Bon" to Deano's "Bambino", the Belafonte signature "Cu Cu Ru Cu Cu Paloma" to the bolero "Perfidia", from "Calypso Island" to cha-cha to a remarkable "Mi Yiddische Mama" -- and then some. Toussaint was also a tasteful acoustic guitarist, adept in a range of styles. Working with top songwriters didn't hurt, and he enjoyed fine cabaret backing from the likes of fellow Haitian saxophonist Marcel Pierre, singer-guitarist Eloise Lewis, and standout (albeit uncredited) jazz-tinged work on piano, trumpet, drum kit, Afro-Cuban percussion and male chorus.
