I found this in a recent news article.
[The Wal-Mart store in uptown New Orleans, built within the last year, survived the storm but was destroyed by looters.
"They took everything _ all the electronics, the food, the bikes," said John Stonaker, a Wal-Mart security officer. "People left their old clothes on the floor when they took new ones. The only thing left are the country-and-western CDs. You can still get a Shania Twain album."]

For anyone who has spent any time in New Orleans, they know the music most loved in their town. It sure is not country or R&R.
The city lives and breaths Jazz, R&B & Soul.

You could get a Shania Twain cd but who would want it? |

Shania's album cover is worth the price of the C.D.[hope my wife does'nt this] at least a lot of her music has steel in it. Great steel solo in her song,I aint no quitter. |

Apparently, the looters didn't like the cover either ...... they still wouldn't take it! |
