I´ve been a long-time fan of this thread, though I ´ve never had the temerity to contribute anything - until reading Carpe´s post:-.

I also took up Loathesome Pete´s recommendation, and am enjoying some Peculiar Pretzelmen. Their Marie Laveaux track reminded me of Dr. John´s old album, Gris Gris, and then I found out that the Pretzels have covered one of the best tracks from that album, Walk on Gilded Splinters. So just in case Carpe, or anyone else hasn´t heard it yet, I´m going to clog up the thread with something that will be stale news to many MBers:-

Finally checked this thread, glad I did! Definitely gonna give that album a listen. I don't have nearly enough in this genre that I love.
