While the New Orleans-based show has a broader focus on the city's everyday life, 'Treme,' the latest show from 'The Wire' creator David Simon, certainly needed some authentic music from the city itself. After all, is it really everyday life in New Orleans without music? A big thanks to the blog 'Songs From Treme' for this playlist... check it out here: http://songsfromtreme.tumblr.com/

This excellent playlist makes me sorry I'm not going to Jazz Fest this year.
But it does remind me that WWOZ is, as usual, live streaming from the festival here:

Fantastic. I just made a playlist inspired by a blog on the Treme site. It's called "Neglected New Orleans R&B". The great thing about making it was the ease of finding all but 2 of these obscure songs in a matter of minutes. Shows the strength and depth of your catalog. I am ever so grateful for your service and spread the word at least a dozen times a day via the FB link. Keep it up, I am addicted to music, and MOG is my never ending fix!
