The Big Easy

the big easy - sun jan 18th 2009 - 2-3pm

Hey folks,

Journey's is back, back, back. Again.

I'll be back on the air this Sunday with a soulful gumbo of New Orleans legends.

Artists likely to feature include Fats Domino, The Meters, Lee Dorsey, Professor Long Hair, Eddie Bo, Earl Palmer, Louis Armstrong and more.

The Weird But Wonderful vote is between a couple of very mainstream New Orleanians:

1. Harry Connick Jr - She http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UOumzTnDxq4

From his 'New Orleans funk' album. So, not swing and featuring some great New Orleans session players, such as Zigaboo Modeliste (Drums) and George Porter Jr (Bass Guitar) both founder members of The Meters - but still not that great...

2. Randy Newman - You Can Leave Your Hat On http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=G-A5kD1rZII

Actually Born in the City of Angels, Newman moved to New Orleans as a child and spent his formative years living and then regularly visiting the Crescent City. Responsible for the soundtracks to such artistic visions as Toy Story, Monsters Inc and Cars; Newman also wrote this song - made famous by Tom Jones and The Full Monty. To decide which one plays the show out, get in touch during the live broadcast: studio@subcity.org or text 'subcity' then your message to 07766 40 41 42.
