The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

If You're Only Going to Get One Mardi Gras Album...

Tom Marker played two cuts from the album New Orleans Party Classics which is put out by Rhino Records. If you are ONLY going to get ONE album to celebrate the good time, this would be the one to get.

It is on my "Ultimate Jukebox" which consists of 300 discs that hold near and dear.

Here are the songs on the album:

GO TO THE MARDI GRAS-- Professor Longhair
DON'T YOU JUST KNOW IT-- "Piano" Smith & the Clowns
JAMBALAYA (ON THE BAYOU)-- Fats Domino
WHIRLAWAY-- A. Tousan
MARDI GRAS MAMBO-- The Hawketts

CARNIVAL TIME-- Al Johnson
I GOT LOADED-- 'Lil Bob the Lollipops
SEA CRUISE-- Frankie Ford
PEANUT VENDOR-- "Red" Tyler & the Gyros
WHO SHOT THE LALA-- Oliver Morgan

IKO IKO-- Dr. John
BIG CHIEF--PART 1-- Professor Longhair
MEET DE BOYS ON THE BATTLEFRONT-- The Wild Tchoupitoulas
HEY POCKY WAY-- Neville Brothers

LI'L LIZA JANE-- Dirty Dozen Brass Band
DANCIN' JONES-- Neville Brothers
SECOND LINE--PART1-- Stop, Inc.
DO WHATCHA WANNA--PART 3-- Rebirth Brass Band

What, no "When the Saints Go Marching In?" Oh, well.

Now, This is Some Mighty Fine Stuff. Get Your Mardi Gras On. --RoadDog
