With volume 20 we dive for the eighth and very last time into the rich musical tradition of Louisiana and New Orleans. As the title of this volume 'Mardi Gras In New Orleans' indicates, composer Mark Armstrong focuses on the music that provides Mardi Gras with the necessary atmosphere.
Mardi Gras or 'Fat Teddy', is the day before Ash Wednesday, better known as Carnival, which is exuberantly celebrated in New Orleans. Parades with colorfully dressed participants are accompanied by energetically playing bands. Mardi Gras also has its typical colors, namely purple, green and gold. During the parades, all kinds of gadgets are thrown out, especially the necklaces or beads are very popular. Whoever wears the most around his neck, therefore, enjoys a lot of attention. As said before, music is of the utmost importance. The 28 tracks, from well-known artists, regional performers and two New Orleans bred Italian artists, provide a captivating glimpse into the amusing and danceable music that brightens up Mardi Gras.
We can certainly conclude that both this album, as well as the seven previous ones that placed the spots in Louisiana and New Orleans, introduced us to formidable recordings that artists from those regions released in the past. That is precisely the advantage of compilations like this, that you only get the most beautiful rhythm & blues presented on a tray. The next volumes in the Southern Bred series will take us through the music of Tennessee and Arkansas.
