early BOS Mr Simon, "Take Me to the Mardi Gras", which didn't get played in the last couple MG sets (there was no MG set last year).

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.
Let's get right to it.

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.

Glad you knew that was the Nevilles, that's another covered-by-many staple, I had no clue.  is "Pocky Way" a street? a person?

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.
