Some tunes to get your feet moving on a Friday night

Twenty-seven tracks recorded in 1921 -- including music by Ethel Waters, Lillyn Brown, and Eddie Cantor.

February, Chilly at first, but full of bounce if you let it. A trip of Boston music to NOLA music with some others in there to help, a trip of chill to groove to hip hop.

This brief period of time in history nonetheless was severely troubled. The Spanish Flu pandemic wiped out between 20 & 40 million of the world's population, causing more deaths than World War I. I was hoping that maybe with music that had specifically been written or recorded in that narrow time frame, we could begin to imagine it. I hope it gives you insight and you enjoy it. Eight tracks including music by Al Jolson, Charles Hart And Lewis James, and Juilliard String Quartet.

Eleven tracks including music by Al Johnson, Austin Pitre Milton Molitor and Charmaine Neville Band.

A playlist inspired by my fascination with the Crescent City and my love for its music. Laissez les bons temps rouler!
