Putumayo Presents: New Orleans

Putumayo Presents: New Orleans (2005) more music like this

by Various Artists

The music remains, despite its era or performer, fully of the New Orleans style. The patron saint of the city, as well as the genre, Louis Armstrong, is presented with one of his later recordings with an all-star band in 1966 (it ...

The Rebirth Brass Band's hottest, most freewheeling session was this live album recorded at New Orleans' Glass House during Mardi Gras.

Bringing It Home (2007) more music like this

by Bonerama

Bonerama, the New Orleans horn band boasting four trombones, seems to have tired of beginning its album titles with the word "Live" (Live at the Old Point, Live from New York), so the group's third album is not called "Live from Tipitina's" even though it is; it's called Bringing It Home, which is also accurate, since Bonerama was formed at ...

New Orleans: Rebuild Restore Rejoice (2006) more music like this

Beyond the obvious connection of the title, New Orleans: Rebuild Restore Rejoice doesn't draw any direct lines to the devastation wrought by the landfall of Hurricane Katrina at summer's close in 2005, which doesn't mean that these tracks recorded by various artists on the Mardi Gras Records roster aren't a reflection of life after the storm. ...
