In this episode of Tapestry of the Times: we celebrate the Big Easy with the late great New Orleans street singer Snooks Eaglin, we hear New Orleans jazz from The Crescent City Serenaders, and we listen back to some vintage Cajun social music; also, the sounds of Timbuktu’s Ali Farka Toure, and a hybrid of American folk guitar and rhythms from Uganda.
