The Observer published a very nice collection of photographs put into a slide show with audio explaining the meaning of music to New Orleans natives and how musicians are still trying to keep the city’s cultural heart beating.
The slideshow was made after the floods in New Orleans and is showing the passion people find in music even in harsh conditions. Excellent.
New Orleans has always been an important music center, specially for Jazz, Funk music and Rap. Artists like Louis Armstrong and Phil Anselmo (Pantera) are some of the artists with a deep influence in music comming from New Orleans.
