Nice comp! Like the last one, a ton of NO artists that are completely unknown. And,another Matthews' cartoon for the cover. Thanks, Xyros. Will help me get through another rainy day in NO, but it could have been a hell of a lot worse.

@ pmac, the last 2 comps in the series will be coming in the next couple of weeks and that will then be end of them.
Looking at CNN I see that NO has managed to stay safe but it could get worse inland when the rain starts. I'd freak out if my home had a chance of getting flooded or blown away every couple of years. Don't know how you do it.

We did dodge a big one. No one was fearing the winds this time. But the river levels were historically high this time of year, due to all of the weather that had hit the MidWest and ultimately came down the river. I live 4 blocks from the river, so my derriere was puckering.
Its not easy living here. But, the payoff is that we walk to fantastic bars, restaurants, and music clubs, and all of us long time residents bond together in a survivor mode type of existence. After I lost everything in Katrina, I tried, briefly, to live somewhere else. But, the siren song of NO called me back home.
Once again, many thanks for the Bo posts, and for everything else that you do for us on the blog. It does not go unappreciated!

Any chance for a re-up?
I'd appreciate it.

Hi!

Thanx for this one. Re-up from 2019? Some "new" artists = "new" hears here.

Cheers!
Ciao! For now.

I enjoy these comps and love the fact that the Popeye dance was apparently popular enough that it inspired so many songs. I don't think this comp even exhausts all of 'em. But what is surprising to me is that I cannot find a single good video on YouTube of someone actually doing the dance so we could see what it looks like. If anyone could point me in the right direction . . .

Thanks for the music!
