I found this in a recent news article.

[The Wal-Mart store in uptown New Orleans, built within the last year, survived the storm but was destroyed by looters.

"They took everything _ all the electronics, the food, the bikes," said John Stonaker, a Wal-Mart security officer. "People left their old clothes on the floor when they took new ones. The only thing left are the country-and-western CDs. You can still get a Shania Twain album."]

For anyone who has spent any time in New Orleans, they know the music most loved in their town. It sure is not country or R&R.

The city lives and breaths Jazz, R&B & Soul.

You could get a Shania Twain cd but who would want it?

Shania's album cover is worth the price of the C.D.[hope my wife does'nt this] at least a lot of her music has steel in it. Great steel solo in her song,I aint no quitter.

Apparently, the looters didn't like the cover either ...... they still wouldn't take it!
