Dear New Orleans (Explicit)
Various Artists
Released:
Aug 2010
Label:
ATC Benefits
This benefit album gets it right. Famous outsiders (My Morning Jacket, the Indigo Girls, Steve Earle, Nellie McKay) join forces with New Orleans' amazing crop of homegrown talent to help a city ravished first by Katrina and then by the Gulf oil spill (not to mention decades of wetlands destruction). Noble intentions aside, these are songs you will continue to play long after New Orleans fades from the news. Check out the indie-pop confection "My Little Brigadoon," a gripping cover of Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks" and Allison Moorer's searing rendition of "A Change is Gonna Come."
