Struttin' Through The Big Easy: Mardi Gras Funk and Soul

Author's Comments

We love that bouncy Crescent City second line as much as the next Mardi Gras reveler, but this collection of New Orleans' skews toward the city's soul-soaked funk and blues strutters. Headed up by the city's brilliant musical ambassadors like Irma Thomas, Dr. John, Lee Dorsey and Allen Toussaint, these tunes examine the polyglot musical language of New Orleans' funky soul.
