Rok, Every time I see or hear one of the great one's, I have to check to make sure they're still with us. I'm glad to see that Aaron Neville is still touring.
I only realized from your posts how important "Nawlins" is to our musical heritage. Going all the way back to my late teen years when I "snuck" into one of the larger "juke joints" where a blues band was playing. What I didn't know, was those slick piano licks he was hittin came from Nawlins, and they came there so long ago nobody knows where they came from, but whoever is playing the piano claims them; most say "the Professor" brought them to town.
Dr. John is like a museum for Nawlins; he keeps all the old ways like "Gri Gri", and other "hoodoo" stuff alive. Baron Smedi, who is on the cover of "Creole Moon" was in an episode of "Miami Vice" where "Legba", a voodoo high priest from Haiti captured "Tubs" when he went undercover.
Here's "Bruha Bembe" from "Creole Moon";
