City Of New Orleans
Wouldn't it be cool if everyone bought their favorite copy of Steve Goodman's City Of New Orleans from the iTunes Music Store? Wouldn't it also be cool if Apple donated all the sales of it to relief efforts in the Southeast? I'm not so naive to think a blog entry could make Apple do anything, but it'd sure be nice if it could...
Yes, I know it's about a train, but the train was named for a great city, and that city had great music, and even though this song might not be at all representative of Delta Blues or New Orleans Jazz, it just feels patriotic to me.
I DO recommend the following versions (in alphabetical order):

What's Up?! I'm Tyler, afternoons on B97, a Top 40 station here in New Orleans. I had never even thought of your suggestion...and GOD, what a great one...and sad that it didn't happen to catch on...because I think if Apple had seen your thought, they would've gone for it, of course, with the support of the artists....cha ching cha ching. :) As a gift from me to you, I'd be glad to send you full MP3's of absolutely any current song on the radio (if you are into Top 40, respectively. :) We get full download capabilities for most labels....so hit me up, brother, and thanks again for thinking of us all the way in New Mexico.
