Nostalgic for New Orleans: Brass Bands, Classic R&B, Trad and New Jazz

I'm nostalgic for New Orleans. Once my home, I just visited after 19 years. This week, R&B with Irma Thomas, Allen Toussaint, Lee Dorsey, Ernie K-Doe & Professor Longhair. Then trad jazz with Panorama Jazz Band, Sidney Bechet and Louis Armstrong. We'll second line with the Panorama, Treme, Dirty Dozen and Rebirth Brass Bands, and much more from the city that care forgot. We'll then go down river and into the gulf for some new and classic Cuban sounds.
