New Orleans has a long musical history and the new Putumayo collection New Orleans captures the ambiance of this city where jazz was born. The musical traditions that New Orleans has nurtured are legendary, but music is not just the stuff of legend there. In the city’s streets, it is a vibrant, ever-evolving art form. New artists regularly learn from their predecessors, and inject those lessons with fresh energy and ideas.

For New Orleans, Putumayo founder Dan Storper researched traditional jazz and blues in forms both old and new after becoming a part time resident of New Orleans in 2003. The collection includes legends Louis Armstrong, Louis Prima, Doc Cheatham, Dr. John and the Preservation Hall Hot 4 with Duke Dejan alongside local favorites Nicholas Payton, Kermit Ruffins, Deacon John, Dr. Michael White, Topsy Chapman, Kevin Clark and Greg Stafford.

The descriptive liner notes, written by New Orleans musicologist Baty Landis, are in English, French and Spanish. They feature striking photographs by respected New Orleans photographer Michael Smith, as well as a resource guide for New Orleans music, travel and entertainment. Renowned New Orleans chef Paul Prudhomme has a contributed a recipe for seafood gumbo.

"I See Love" // Keb' Mo'

Estas são algumas das minhas músicas prediletas. A minha memória temporal é totalmente relacionada às musicas que marcaram algum período, alguma situação ou alguma pessoa. Eu sempre escuto Good Times Coming do Paul McCartney de 1986 e lembro de uma cena com as minhas tias, ainda adolescentes, brincando comigo... lembro do local... da roupa que elas usavam... 
Por isso, cada musica escolhida nessa playlist, não foi selecionada pela qualidade musical ou qualquer outra análise técnica, e sim pelo significado que elas tem pra mim.
