5 out of 5 stars Your Purchase Benefits a Good Cause!.......2006-03-12

The description of this CD forgot to note this statement from Blue Note's website: "All net profits from the sale of the CD will be donated to the Higher Ground Relief Fund established by Jazz at Lincoln Center and administered through the Baton Rouge Area Foundation to benefit the musicians, music industry related enterprises and other individuals and entities from the areas in Greater New Orleans who were impacted by Hurricane Katrina and to provide other general hurricane relief."



5 out of 5 stars Another Katrina Relief CD.......2006-03-01

I also really enjoyed this CD from various artists. Anything I can do to help in little ways like this, I am more than happy to do. My heart goes out to everyone still in NO. This CD will be played every Mardi Gras season I am around and maybe even on the off-season, too!

5 out of 5 stars Remembering New Orleans.......2006-02-27

Anybody who loves New Orleans will love this CD. It has many of the hit songs associated with the city performed by stellar
artists and many new interpretations of old favorites as well.
Best of all, buying the CD allows money to go to Hurricane Katrina relief.

5 out of 5 stars top flight.......2006-01-27

ok---I haven't heard the whole cd yet, and I'm sorry to see that others who have reviewed it were disappointed that certain cuts were 'cut'. HOWEVER, I'm about to purchase this cd based solely upon the one cut I heard yesterday on our local music station WWOZ in New Orleans. What I heard was Irvin Mayfield's "Just a Closer Walk With Thee". It's INSANELY GOOD. Being from New Orleans, I've heard this tune done dozens of different ways...and I've heard Irvin Mayfield live dozens of times...but this is beyond amazing. At least try to hear this cut IN FULL. This is a 'turn off the lights and concentrate' sort of offering.

5 out of 5 stars Great Performances/Great Cause.......2006-01-16

You can't listen to this CD without Katrina's aftermath running through your mind. That doesn't make it a sad listening experience, just a very meaningful one beyond just the sounds coming through the speakers.
There's jazz, gospel, rhythm and blues... all the sounds that made New Orleans a music mecca. The performers are the best (Wynton Marsalis, Norah Jones, Aaron Neville, James Taylor, Buckwheat Zydeco and others).
Treat yourself to this stellar collection of artists/songs and do something to benefit New Orleans at the same time.
