Based on the premise that the true Home of the Groove, at least on the North American landmass, is the irreplaceable musical and cultural nexus, New Orleans, Louisiana and environs, this audioblog features rare, hard to find, often forgotten, vintage New Orleans-related R&B and funk records with commentary. Some general knowledge of N.O. music is helpful here, but not required to get your groove on.

The Maple Leaf Bar is back open in Uptown New Orleans with music nightly. WWOZ has the Leaf's October schedule up, as their website is not updated.
Also, Snug Harbor re-opens this weekend with it's fine jazz bookings.

Meanwhile, French Quarter bar owners plan to defy the curfew and stay open all night. And Mardi Gras will roll.
Life really does go on. . . .
