Paul Weston - "Crescent City"

Paul Weston's 1957 musical tribute to New Orleans, "Crescent City - The Music of New Orleans" is an American music classic of the 20th Century. It is a hauntingly beautiful mosaic of the city.  The music came to be written when husband & wife Paul Weston & Jo Stafford visited New Orleans, Louisiana, they fell in love with the city.

Ernie K. Doe - "I Cried My Last Tear"

Here is the very catchy flip side to "A Certain Girl," which I posted back on 3/22/11.
I get a great New Orleans vibe from this song and finding myself humming it for a while after listening to it.
