What albums are good? Both Treme soundtracks are excellent, plus classics like Dr. John, DD Brass band, etc. Any other recommendations?
 
Galactic recently did a mardi gras album called Carnival Electricos. I loved the track Move Fast with Mystikal and Manny Fresh (although it might not be what you are looking for).

This is just a list of music traditionally identified with New Orleans and/or its musical milieu. Not much here is inherently "Mardi Gras."

I am guessing you are talking about the other posts. Hard to find two songs that are more Mardi Gras than Fess' rendention of these two traditionals. I've been to enough to know.





I am guessing that Drew wanted some accessible (and free!) Mardi Gras music to accompany his Kroger cinammon king cake and powered hurricane mix.

If you wanna dig a little deeper, I give you the Wild Tchoupitoulas Indians, but they still aren't as responsible for the mainstay MG athems as the Fess. You cant get anymore authentic, but all they really do is riff on Fess and the Meters.
