Assembled by the Shout Factory
Handsomely packaged these four discs with a total of 85 recordings takes you through the depth and breath of the New Orleans music scene. And we are not just talking about jazz; there is lots of rhythm and blues, rock, soul and funk, New Orleans style of course. You'll also visit a local club on Zydeco night and walk along with a marching brass band as it leaves a cemetery. The oldest recording was made in 1927 and the latest in 2002.
FIVE HOURS OF UNSTOPPABLE GROOVES
The titles of the tunes alone will have you swaying and clapping, like Potato Head Blues, Sea Cruise, Down in Honky Tonk Town, Mardi Gras Mambo, Mother in Law or how about Stoned, Drunk and Naked.
All your favorites artists are here; Fats Domino, Dr. John, Lil Queenie, Clarence Frogman Henry, Ernie K-Doe, Irma Thomas and Dave Bartholomew to name just a few.
THE BOOK INCLUDES AN 84 PAGE BOOK
It's a bonus and a big one, the book explains the unusual title (Doctors, Professor, Kings and Queens) and is loaded with photographs and fun observations about behavior in New Orleans. Remembrances of New Orleans highly recommend this "Big Ol Box of New Orleans."
