Dish up some crawfish and party! This is classic New Orleans jazz featuring hot horns and plenty of Cajun spice. You’ll want to start a parade and begin throwing beads to the crowd. Play it all!

1. A classic march intro leads to some hip Satchmo-esque vocals.
2. Upbeat 50’s rock-style brass w/extra cool sax work. Great stuff.
3. Swinging toe-tapper w/nice trumpet work.
4. Bluesy gospel standard w/sweet vocals. Starts relaxed, picks up.
5. Sharp snare drum, cool trombone, gospel vocals. Mid/up & stylin’.
6. Mid/up gospel-influenced w/organ, ‘bone, trumpet. Yay!
7. Upbeat New Orleans rock-n-roll w/Dr. John on vox.
8. Down-n-dirty w/emotional vox. Let the funeral march begin.
9. Sweet quartet w/an old fashioned feel. Great piano/guitar/brass.
10. Let the parade begin. Classic march w/cool kinda growly vocals.
11. N.O.’s theme song given a hot, big-band treatment. Up & energetic.
