Amazing run of comps here. I've got the 1st 2 of these on (portable) heavy rotation since you were gracious enough to make them available to us on here. Great stuff. Here's hoping that after enough people hit play on here you'll do the same for this comp as well as the latest NO Soul Heroes. Thanks, King. It's comps like these that make the whole notion of music blogging what it should be.
Worthy successor to the stunningly beautiful first two volumes. Went to Markeys Bar a few days after the release of the 2nd vol., and started to look up a few of the songs on their digital jukebox, and played them. Numerous patrons commented on how great these unheard gems were. I have little doubt that if this music was just played to the masses, it would no longer remain undiscovered gems.
The text for this post seems to have gone into cyberspace - but from memory one of the things I really enjoy of and about this and your other sites is the way, at times, you turn a phrase - and you mentioned that what might seem to be mainstream artists to you - such as Early King, Johnny Adams and Eddie Bo - mainstream in New Orleans. Just look at the talent in those 3 names - but just 3 of the many artists you had the chance to hear play out - once again proving your point that this music comes from New Orleans and, as the song/saying goes - There Ain't No City Like New Orleans. Thanks,as always, for the lessons in Deep Southern Soul!

Thanks KC, YOU OUR THE MAN. Your Jukebox has to be the envy of all.......................
Another great mix! Thanks.
Also: love the photos and art on the site...really nice stuff too. I often look at them while listening to the music.
