Distorted History Podcast

Blues and the Mississippi Flood of 1927 Part 8 Barbecue Bob and the Trouble with New Orleans


Listen Later

We deviate from the main thrust of our narrative to talk about the life and music of blues musician Robert Hicks aka BBQ Bob. Then we look at the curious case of New Orleans the richest city in the south. Where the city's bankers and businessmen in an effort to protect their own wealth and power sought to have a levee destroyed thereby flooding another community.
