New Orleans Rhythm And Blues [Remastered] - Various Artists

Advantages: The better tracks outweigh the average ones
Disadvantages: Not many but some fillers

...For what this cd is worth its good value for money, some little gems on this disc. Sometimes you buy soundtracks to find little known tracks that will never be released you can nod along to, Blue Streak has quite a few of these and i was well pleased with this purchase. Only seen the film once but rate the soundtrack higher Girls Best Friend - Jay Z. A simple layed beat by Swizz Beats opens up the album with Jay Z hitting all the right notes, kind of. Single released with video, not his best but not a bad track Criminal Mind - Tyrese & Heavy D. Good track, catchy chorus. A good up tempo follow up to the Jay Z track Damn - So Plush & Ja Rule. Tune. Great track. Production by Darkchild hits the right spots, Ja Rule early raps leads you up the garden path and into a chorus filled with simple lyrics and sweet voices. Theres something...

At this stage it is probable useful to point out that... Read review

Advantages: Still the most beautiful city in the US
Disadvantages: Hurricane Katrina

...". And yet the city still lives. In typical New Orleans fashion, Bourbon Street was one of the first areas of the city to get electricity back, and the first thing they did was to sell drinks to the rescue workers. It's also popular for tourists to book what are locally called "disaster tours" where they drive through the most devastated parts of the area: the Lower Ninth Ward, Gentilly, Lakeside, New Orleans East. and Saint Bernard Parish. Ghoulish as it sounds, it's both chilling and fascinating to travel through the hardest hit areas. Every time I go to New Orleans, I take a drive through various parts to see how things are coming along.
