This week on The New Jazz Archive, we continue our ongoing series on America's great jazz cities with the story of jazz in New Orleans. We’ll talk with jazz historian Bruce Raeburn about the birth of jazz in New Orleans in the early twentieth century, and get to know the raucous New Orleans parade tradition that is Second Line. And we’ll welcome back our favorite Louis Armstrong historian Ricky Riccardi to the show to talk about Satchmo’s wild and woolly years growing up on the streets of the Crescent City, and explore how Hurricane Katrina has reshaped the New Orleans jazz scene.
