Our Take

Various Artists have taken us along for a stroll through the vibrant streets of New Orleans with their latest compilation, "Walking To New Orleans - A History Of The Crescent City Piano Pioneers." And let me tell you, this collection of tunes is like a musical gumbo, rich in flavor and full of soul.

From the timeless classics of Professor Longhair to the modern interpretations of Dr. John, this album pays homage to the piano pioneers who have shaped the sound of New Orleans for generations. The ivory keys take center stage here, weaving a tapestry of sounds that is as complex and unpredictable as the city itself.

But what truly sets this album apart is its ability to transport the listener to a place where the music is as alive as the streets themselves. With each note, you can almost feel the humidity in the air and smell the gumbo simmering on the stove. It's a sensory experience unlike any other.

So take a journey through the musical history of the Crescent City with "Walking To New Orleans," and let the piano pioneers guide you on a toe-tapping, finger-snapping adventure. This album is a love letter to a city like no other, and a testament to the enduring power of music to bring people together. Grab yourself a drink, and let the good times roll.
