Top Ten Mardi Gras Oldies-- Part 1

From About.com Oldies Music by Robert Fontenot. //// 1. GO TO THE MARDI GRAS-- Professor Longhair. The King of All Mardi Gras songs and a breathtaking piano intro.. //// HEY POCKY WAY-- Meters. Strongest of several Mardi Gras classics. //// 3. STREET PARADE-- Earl King Captures the loose feel of Second Line better than any other song. //// 4. CARNIVAL TIME-- Al Johnson. His one and only hit, but he still bills himself as Al "Carnival Time" Johnson. Listen to it and you'll know why. //// 5. JOCK-A-MO-- Sugar Boy Crawford and His Cane Cutters. Most of you know it as "Iko, Iko" but what the song originally sounded like when it was "Raw Fifties R&B." //// Five More Tomorrow. --RoadDog
