10@10: Alternative Takes

[CapnJack]

As promised (and spurred on by Renee's effort today), here's my fifth visit to 1969:

 

Utterly wonderful -- BOS Groucho. Music Scene was da bomb.

The Groucho (Harry Ruby) song would be perfect in a Father's Day set.

[CapnJack]

A little late with this one, but here is my Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras set:

 1. John Boutte - The Treme Song
 2. Professor Longhair - Mardi Gras In New Orleans (1940s)
 3. Harold A. "Duke" Dejan & The Olympia Brass Band - Just A Closer Walk With Thee / New Second Line

Surprisingly, Renee and I share two tracks (Fess' "Go To The Mardi Gras" and Gary U.S. Bonds "New Orleans"),
and her set was really good -- a nice way to go out.  I extended my set to 15 (it clocks in at 43-and-a-half minutes). 
Enjoy the set!

and boy, did I -- this was quite a tonic considering how disappointing AL's 1990 was today. Nearly my entire wish-list in one fell swoop. Delightful.

this one's awesome -- if AL ever played it, it would surely be a BOS contender. Sadly, it's not on YouTube.  Ditto "Starfish & Coffee"

and LLCoolJ: *swoon*!
