[CapnJack]

Clifton Chenier "Choo Choo Ch-Boogie"

[urth]

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

Clifton Chenier, may he rest in peace.

Only the second new song not in last year's set.

[CapnJack]

Gary U.S. Bonds "New Orleans"

[RGMike]

"Congo Square", Nevilles.

[CapnJack]

The Neville Brothers "Congo Square"

[CapnJack]

Fats Domino "Walking To New Orleans"

[RGMike]

the Fat Man!  "Walkin to New Orleans"  -- the Mardis Gras set is always so short.

[CapnJack]

Renee: BOS Fats Domino / Dixie Cups; VHM Huey "Piano Smith"

ETA: I'll have my Mardi Gras set up around noon, if you care to listen.

I'll check it out this afternoon! WTF is on now, but I don't expect them to stay on for too much longer.

Hey, I'm listening to it now. Apparently, it's not on the streaming audio radar of my company. Does the DJ ever say anything? Is Dave Morey still doing this?

Yes, Dave is still behind it, and if the DJ doesn't talk, that usually means it's him. Sometimes he uses a robotic voice generator.  (You might hear his voice for station IDs and the like.) Other DJs do speak on-air with their real voices.

Ditto "Hey Pocky Way" -- Meters? (there's so many versions of this)

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.

This show?

That's certainly possible! It's about the right year, as near as I can remember.
