Review of New Orleans Music in Exile

If this film had high production and great special effects and seamless blends it would suffer. As for what it had to say and how it was done, fantastic. It gave me a glimpse at this great 'CITY OF THE SOUL' and their musical contribution to the WORLD, the artists loss and fortitude and our need to do more than give empty gestures and mouth play. DR. JOHN, God Bless Him, I first heard him on the 'Hippie Underground' Radio Stations and Dave Herman from New York Radio on Friday nights. New Orleans must come back as close to what it was and not as an interviewed person said: " a brand name" . I heard and saw people in this film that i had only caught the ends of their songs on the radio. This was a seat of the pants film, just as New Orleans is getting by today. Great, as far as i am concerned. If you miss this WORK, it is a loss for all concerned.
