This review is from: Our New Orleans 2005 (Audio CD)

I looked up this CD just to show a friend who is a fellow Blues lover and was so shocked to see that it has never been reviewed before! Wow! What a shame. Could it be no one knows how terrific this collection is?

This CD is simply sublime. It fills me with sweet reminiscence, taking me back to the shade dappled streets of the Garden District and the happy hub-bub of the French Quarter. If you love New Orleans like I do and if you love the Blues, your collection won't be complete without this fabulous CD.
