John Broven's iconic, critically-acclaimed tome "Walking To New Orleans", subtitled "The Story Of New Orleans Rhythm &?Blues", was published in August 1974 as a spinoff of Blues Unlimited magazine It was, in Broven's own words:?"An original study of New Orleans R&B, chronicling the exciting rise and dramatic fall of the city's R&B era, from the 1940s through the 1960s, focusing mainly on the artists' history, on records. The story is enhanced by first-hand interviews with many of the leading exponents of the local music scene, including musicians, producers, songwriters, disc jockeys, jukebox operators, and studio and record-label owners." To celebrate it's 50th Anniversary, John has compiled a belated "aural accompaniment" to his fine book. It's not a typical "New Orleans' Greatest Hits" set, as there are already plenty on the market, but largely a collection of less readily known recordings by the featured artists.
