No city captured the hearts and minds of R&B musicians as the birthplace of jazz, New Orleans. Even those who weren't directly affiliated with the Crescent City by birthright, such as Oklahoma-born Los Angeleno Joe Liggins, still strove to pay tribute and invoke the near mythical N'awlins spirit in their music. "Going Back to New Orleans" is a fitting and authentic tribute indeed, running the rhythmic gamut through Dixieland jazz, rumba, and rock and roll. In actuality, the song is a reworked cover of Ellis "Slow" Walsh's original "New Orleans is My Home," itself a fine piece of work which is featured here on the flip-side.
