==Style and influence== Allen's trumpet style has been described by [[Joachim-Ernst Berendt]] and others as the first to fully incorporate the innovations of [[Louis Armstrong]], and to develop an emphasis on phrasing.<ref name="Berendt" /><ref name="RCJE" /> Allen's recordings received much favorable attention. His versatility is shown by his winning of ''[[DownBeat]]'' awards in both the traditional jazz and the modern jazz categories. In 2022, the [[New Orleans City Council]] voted to rename "Slidell Street" in Algiers to "Red Allen Way", in his honor.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nola.com/news/politics/article_78b1e33a-6f32-11ec-85fd-d395b441608b.html |title=Allen Toussaint, New Orleans music icon, gets a boulevard renamed in his honor |last=Sledge |first=Matt |date=January 6, 2022 |website=nola.com|access-date=March 17, 2022}}</ref>
