Nikonnola, it sure is nice to have someone still living in New Orleans on this thread.
I would like to know where Marcia Ball fits into the musical scheme of things down there?

Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music.
Jon Batiste is a musician Rok just introduced me to. From the first notes he played, I knew he was from Louisiana, with out knowing anything else about him.
Here's his bio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Batiste
This is the tune Rok submitted;

It was one I will eagerly add to my collection. I thought I would share this with other music lovers seeking new artists.

I think Marcia missed the essence of the song. The sax solo was totally out of place. A great Group https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMktmt9H_2U New Orleans Royalty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Wjo91kWfqQ My mom worked on the levees placing sandbags in Mississippi. Will always remember her stories. Cheers |
This song by Gregory Porter impressed me, so did Lalah Hathaway; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFsChbwsbmo |
