PHILLYQ Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I've heard some of the stuff on there, and if the rest is up to that standard, then this set is a SMOKER! The Marcia Ball cut is excellent, the Dr John cuts are also very good, the Meters are great, Rebirth Brass Band are very hot, some 'Fess, a bit of zydeco, looks great to me. How much is it selling for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Allan Lowe was offerering this box a little while ago in O/L for a good price: New Orleans Box for Sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I resisted it for a few weeks because I thought I already had too many of the cuts on it. Then I read about the booklet and decided I had to have it. The booklet is great and it turns out I didn't have as much of the music as I thought and some of the best is by people I'd never even heard of before.
