N. O. music with a difference--a big one 'cuz it's Latin based...but look again at the founding members--pure N.O. all the way--let's don't forget New Orleans is a big Caribbean/Latin port, with all those influences and people coming in. Los Hombres Calientes.This is a supergroup, if that term has any meaning. Discog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOZ40BOEepU << 6 discs in 16 years and all these guys have many other obligations... They are on this small but important N.O. label: http://www.basinstreetrecords.com/artist...calientes/

Some tunes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOZ40BOEepU << I love watching Latin dancing << Tasteful 1-minute endpiece on this vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOZ40BOEepU << So raucous, so right. What I said above in my OP? I lied--mos' def' gonna be more Kermit Ruffins << Tuba/Sousaphone players are guaranteed employment in N.O.....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLsEu6rssps << Trenchant 1st Comment
