Program: New Orleans Music Show with George Ingmire

last week David Gordon was hit by a Monte Carlo with Texas Plates 355 NVR. He's now laying up in bed and probably won't walk so well for a number of months. Since then the car has been located - but the driver is still as free as a bird.

Did you know that hit and runs are considered a misdemeanor here in the Crescent City? Add to this a police force that isn't too keen on tracking down the bad guy and what you end up with is no justice.

so, let's call upon our hoodoo powers to deal with it. Forget the vigilante approach, however tempting it may be.

SO...

today's show (11am to 2pm CST on wwoz. org or 90.7FM in New Orleans) will start with voodoo/hoodoo related tunes - followed by a whole bunch of Johnny Adams aka the Tan Canary.

Why Johnny Adams? Because he's so amazing.
