Extraordinary rendition by Neil Young of the song " Walking to New Orleans " (by Bobby Charles, written for and recorded by Fats Domino).

"Im 14 and just started listening to blues, found artist like muddy waters bo diddley neil young bb king and more realizing that these artist are at the heart of music. This is better than new fake artist who make songs with weird lyrics. this music is real words from the heart." 2010Ajholmes

"There's some good old stuff. You might want to check out Chess Record label (search YT). But don't write off your own generation, there's some good stuff being produced today, and many will be tomorrow's classics. So research music roots by all means, but keep an open outlook. A wide music experience is better than a narrow one." Buzzer365

I'm breaking down in old age. I hear Fats and my walkin' legs get weak.

Still cheering for y'all in N'awlins. I hope it doesn't sound cold, but every empty lot keeps the corporate clowns from buying y'all out and building some sort of cheap Disney style copy of what the place used to be.

Stay tough down there...

Aiiiiiyyeeeeeeeee!

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?


Chicken, shrimps, crawdads?

I used to regularly eat the stew at the Camelia Grill on Tuesdays. Of course, on Mondays - the only question the waitress would ask is "hot or smoked"? Sausage, that is, for my red beans and rice.

Those days, it seems, are gone.

Glad to have escaped the whole state well before Kat hit.

For the Hurricane Katrina benefit telethon, Neil Young did a great cover of Fat's song. The original is most excellent too.

Happy Mardy Gras too! God bless thos in NO & elsewhere still suffering from Katrina.
