All Music GuideThis is the database that I use in the store to look up hard to find, obscure and out of print titles for my customers. It's amazingly complete with bios and photos on many of the entrys - and the cross referencing capabilities will make sure you get way more info than you were originally seeking. Music info junkies beware: this page is highly addictive. AND REMEMBER: If you locate that hard to find CD listed in the All Music databse, just click back to Louie's and email us for the lowest possible price quote!
Louisisana Music OnlineThis is a great non-commercial, non-tourist source of information and links relating to New Orleans and Louisiana including links to radio stations, instrument stores, local bands, record labels and more. Lots of great informational pages and photos too.
Superfly ProductionsIf your planning a trip to the Big Easy but don't want to end up on some damn steamship or worse, consult the Superfly website FIRST. Superfly promotes some of the slamminest knockout funk reviews in the business - some of the lineups they come up with seem straight out of a dream. Here's an example from last year's schedule: John Mooney, Henry Butler, George Porter Jr & Stanton Moore playing TOGETHER.. I can't even imagine.
Master DigitalOne of the finest mastering outfits in the country with a specialty in roots music. Most of the fine recordings we sell at Louie's (including many of the recordings from the GHB Foundation) were mastered by the fine folks at MD, led by guru Parker Dinkins. If you're serious about your music project, talk to the folks at Master Digital before making any rash decisions.
Alligator RecordsSome of the best modern blues in print, Alligator recently added the entire Blacktop Records catalog to its treasure trove.
Blind Pig RecordsBlind Pig is truly a label with a soul, producing many fine blues projects from the unknown to the legendary.
Fat Possum RecordsFat Possum is one of the few blues labels with its own distinctive sound. The blues doesn't get any rougher or realer. You can buy their excellent sampler from their site for only $5! Highly recommended.
WWOZOZ is possibly the finest roots radio broadcast in the country. Naturally, any station with such good taste is supported by private funds, so pop by their website and buy a groovy T-shirt!
