Star Time #246: Street Parade
Sure, it's a little anti-climatic to post Star Time's 6th annual Mardi Gras special so late in the holiday, but west of the Rockies we've got at least a good two hours left to kill with potables. That should be more than enough. It's the same basic concept as every year: Two hours of R&B and blues from the general New Orleans area, which is where this whole popular music thing started in the first place. Remember, Imperial and Minit Records care about you.
