The Preservation: An Album Benefitting Preservation Hall and the Preservation Hall Music Outreach Program record came out in February and it was chock full of incredible contemporary musicians doing classic New Orleans songs with the great Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
Tom Waits proclaimed "Tootie Ma" to be a big fine thing on it, but what's bigger, as well as finer?? Why free records of course! As a way to say thanks to some of the artists involved, as well as showcase their individual work, our friends at 'Stache Media gave us a package of the latest CDs from seven of those artists to give away. The artists/releases in the package are...

One thing? That's impossible. The food. The music. The vibe. The sunshine. Ok, ok... Randy Newman gets a vote.
I love the beignets at Cafe du Monde!
I love walking around the streets of the French Quarter during Mardi Gras. The French Quarter is like Animal House with gift shops.
