Poll question: Who is your favorite New Orleans R&B performer? |
|
Since several of you have actually asked me to post a new music poll, I'm doing so. Anyone who disapproves is free not to participate. (Duh!)
As always, feel free to write in your favorite New Orleans R&B artist if he/she is not listed below. Happy voting!

13. the good doctor is definitely in . . . |

one of my all-time favorites . . . in addition to his own stuff, he has also contributed some incredible keyboard work to other artists . . . his solo on Bromberg's "Don't Put That Thing On Me" is gorgeous . . .

9. James Booker's version of "Goodnight Irene" is one of the greatest |
|
things I've ever heard in my life...seek it out if you don't have it on CD.
Having lived in the Vieux Carre for five years, I gotta say the best Norlins music I heard came from the dozens of prepubescent brass and drum bands I used to see in Jackson Square...Those kids were AMAZING!!! I usedta take days off from work just to catch them in action.
