You won't find a warmer, more powerful and moving tribute to the City of New Orleans and its people and culture than this five-star, 13-track album that features some of the city's most revered artists. Young and old, the New Orleans Social Club members capture many facets of the Katrina tragedy while also celebrating in distinctive 'Nawlins styles the music that helped make American popular culture famous the world over. Nearly everything on this sumptuous collection of angry, compassionate, patriotic and hopeful sentiments are cover songs. But they are covers like you've never heard before in the hands of Cyrill and Ivan Neville, Marcia Ball in duet with Irma Thomas. Dr. John, Henry Butler, the subdudes and others. While Ivan Neville reworks Credence Clearwater's "Fortunate Son" into an even more sympathetic victim of an alienating bureaucratic system that underscores this democracy's appetite for war and domestic neglect, the Mighty Chariots of Fire let go a joyful gospel challenge to the nation in "991/2 Won't Do." But the political hue and cry that hangs over many of these tracks, including Dr. John's impromptu and melancholy reading of Fats Domino's "Walking to New Orleans," there are also some classic New Orleans music moments where engaging style, spirit and rhythm and nutthin' else rules the day. Just check Trombone Shorty's tasty "Hey Troy, Your Mama's Calling You," or The Sixth Ward All-Star Brass Band Revue whipping up a familiar medley of tunes as if it were a big pot of gumbo, and you know right then that the spirit of the city can never die, come hell or high water. Highly recommended. -- Martin Keller

Great CD.......2007-06-27

This is an outstanding choice for those who are looking to be exposed to a full range of musical genres native to the Crescent City. One of the better CDs I've purchased in recent memory. Imminently listenable! Cyril Neville's reworking of an old Credence Clearwater standard is an instant classic!

Sing Me Back Home.......2007-06-09

Created just 6 weeks after Katrina, this album reflects the emotions of the artists in an amazing way. The musicians of some of New Orleans' best.

#1 on my most played list 2006.......2007-01-22

I am a musician and I play alot of instruments and genres. I like alot of different kinds of music..."Sing Me Back Home" is by far the best album I've procurred in quite a long time. The New Orleans Social Club is the dream "house band" for any front man or woman. The emotional breath of the album is really deep and full; the grooves are funky and clean.

An Excellent Compilation.......2007-01-04

Being a former resident near New Orleans for 40 years, I always loved the music of that city. Since retiring to the Philippines, it is even more appreciated now. The message of "Sing Me Back Home" can act as a rallying cry to those that left after Katrina. Both the artists and the songs were selected to portray the vast culture of New Orleans. The CD is truly a musical gumbo of styles, and there is something in the pot for everybody.

Feed Your Soul.......2006-07-02

"We made a big ol' batch of gumbo and invited some of our favorite piano ticklers, street paraders, rhythm-and-blues singers, Mardi Gras Indians, troubadours and funkateers to celebrate the indomitable spirit of New Orleans. So grab a plate, fill it up and FEED YOUR SOUL"- The New Orleans Social Club inviting their fans to this new CD to raise money for New Orleans.

"Sing Me back Home", from the New Orleans Social Club, has a cast that came together after the Katrina disaster. The super group, featuring Neville Brother Ivan and Meter Leo Nocentelli--lay down piano-heavy Rock and Blues with such musicians as Irma Thomas, Dr. John, Cyril Neville, and the Subdudes, among others, bring the sorrow, anger, hope, and soul of the city's people. These musicians know precisely what it means to miss New Orleans, and they're singing, as the title suggests, to ensure that their city's spirit comes home. Grammy producers and friends to music, Leo Sacks and Ray Bardani gathered a dream team of their Delta-born musicians for a collection of songs that sing with and to the soul. This CD was recorded in just a week.

Cyril Neville's "This is My Country" and you feel the urgency and love for his city.

Ivan Neville sings the John Forgery's "Fortunate Son," The flavor of New Orleans comes alive with this rendtion.

"Look Up" is a stirring spiritual rendition by Irma Thomas and Marcia Ball.

Dr John sings "Walking To New Orleans", sorting the pace to the return.

Trombone Shorty's spirited "Hey Troy, Your Mama's Calling You{ begs for foot tappin and hand clappin'.

"Loving You Is On My Mind" by the entire group is an emotionally laden song.

"Somewhere" by Henry Butler is a particularly affecting song.

"99 1/2 Won't Do" by The Mighty Chariots of Fire has a feel of excitement and this world re-owned gospel choir sings it with gusto.

The Subdues sing "Make A better World" this group of Delta City musicians came together to sing for their city.

"First Taste Of Hurt" by Willie Tee, who is a Louisiana swamp singer, with a fine voice, sing sof the pain they all feel.

"Where Y'At? (Medley: Jesus On The Main Line\ I'm Walking\ The Saints" The Sixth Ward All-Star Brass Band Revue featuring Brother Charles Neville is a rousing and fitting review of songs from NOLA.

"Chase" sung by Big Chief Monk Boudreaux, a harmonic tribal Unity that dates from the 1800's. This song sings about "no where to go, why chase me away".

"Why" sung by John Boutte sums up the mindset of the damaged Delta through Annie Lennox's song. John Boutte who was in Brazil when the hurricane hit but returned right away, says, "I've been here listening to everybody sling arrows at each other and no one is doing anything. Why do I see empty trucks passing by? The wind didn't do it, the rain didn't do it, the levee did it. We'll always have a will to make it. It's human nature. Hope lies in the people of New Orleans."

There is some feeling of loss and negativity by the participants in their minds but not in this CD. This is a passionate meeting of souls who have come together to sing for their city. There is sorrow, loss and wounded pride mixed with the love of their city. It all shows in "Sing Me back Home".
Highly Recommended. prisrob 7-01-06

Own this Yamaha Artist Series Cd!.......2002-10-19

I was pleased with each track performance- the Yamaha artists prove that great flutists also happen to like Yamaha flutes.

Alison Young is my favorite on this cd. It was a welcomed surprise and inspired me to get out and learn that piece.

I have always been a big fan of promoting Yamaha flutes to my students and now I can also promote the artist series cds. Great buy.

Even her lesser known entries are pretty good.......2006-07-19

I found this one used at a bargain price and owning 2 other Irma Thomas Cds, I figured it was worth a shot. She sings every song here with everything she has and the arrangements are all pretty good. This is not a well known work but if you like her more popular works, you'll like this one too.
