Description
John Broven's iconic, critically-acclaimed tome 'Walking To New Orleans', subtitled 'The Story Of New Orleans Rhythm &Blues', was published in August 1974 as a spinoff of Blues Unlimited magazine, to celebrate its 50th Anniversary, John has compiled a belated 'aural accompaniment' to his fine book. It was, in Broven's own words:'An original study of New Orleans R&B, chronicling the exciting rise and dramatic fall of the city's R&B era, from the 1940s through the 1960s, focusing mainly on the artists' history, on records. The story is enhanced by first-hand interviews with many of the leading exponents of the local music scene, including musicians, producers, songwriters, disc jockeys, jukebox operators, and studio and record-label owners.'
It's not a typical 'New Orleans' Greatest Hits' set, as there are already plenty on the market, but largely a collection of less readily known recordings by the featured artists.
