I dig it all, but I can't say much from a critical standpoint.  The only thing I know enough to hope for is the original "Iko Iko" by the Dixie Cups, and something by Clifton Chenier.

here's "Iko Iko", tho' not by the Dixie Cups (or the Dixie Chicks for that matter).

BOS2 to that zydeco version of "Jambalaya", whoever it was.

BOS3 "Rockin' Pneumonia" -- it ain't Johnny Rivers, that's for sure.  Huey "Piano" Smith", maybe?

Yeah, you right!

And Tipitina was Professor Longhair, which got my BOS vote.

"You can have my Husband..." was Irma Washington, I think.

And y'all know the Nevilles, with Hey Pocky Way.

ETA: Uhh, I meant Irma Thomas. Really.

I thought it was Dr. John, but what do I know?

Also not Johnny Winter nor the Flamin' Groovies, to name two other versions I've heard.

And when was the last time Dave played something from as far back as 1938?

So with a theme set today, any chance of an Oscar set on Friday?  I sent Dave an email on the subject & he hasn't replied.

Well, I'm not sticking around thru 40 minutes of Coldplay and Aqualung to hear the bonus. Off to VIP Radio, my new fave station.

I'm headin' for WWOZ for today, to get some more mardi gras tunes, straight from the Big Easy.

And yeah, I corrected myself on the Irma Thomas flub above. See original post.

He used to do a big-band set for April Fools Day (complete with Pardo saying "it's... 1941 today on 10@10").  That's gone the way of the Betamax.  As to Oscars, we suggest it every year, don't we? and last year was the first time he actually took the bait -- no set list posted, but he played 10 songs from movies and HE picked 'em, not Fogheads.

No clues on Dave's blog so far. 'twould be nice if he did one, tho'... "10 best songs that didn't get nominated" would rule!

I asked him for the lovely instrumental piece in The Color of Money by Mark Knopfler called "Two Brothers and a Stranger".

heard all of these (minus the paul simon) at the argus last night. i tended bar whilst everyone chowed down on jambalaya, red beans and rice, cornbread and greens, baked mac and cheese, tea cookies, king cake, and smothered chicken. then...at 12:30 in the morning, someone walked in with a tupperware full of dirty rice!!! i emptied half of the bowl onto my plate behind the bar, and doused it with crystal hot sauce. my operative in new orleans tells me that the crystal plant will not recover from katrina. so buy all the crystal hot sauce you can now!!!! they won't be making any more!!!!

Holy crap, now THAT's a tragedy. Crystal is the hot sauce of choice in our house--not just hot for heat's sake like Tabasco, it's got some righteous flavor too. I will be following your suggestion and going out to pick up a few bottles post haste. Thanks for the tip, POC.
