I'll give it a BOS. A fine silly song.

Huey "Piano" Smith (looked it up)

Not one I'd have guessed for Mardi Gras, but it fits. BOS!

The first one I ever heard was the Grateful Dead at Frost Amphitheatre at Stanford. I loved it, and it got me interested in the Neville Brothers. I'd like to hear that again.

I'm getting lost. I know this is called "Choo-Choo-ch-Boogie" but no idea who this is.
