For Fat Tuesday 2013, I welcomed Scott Bragg as my guest to the forest to celebrate Mardi Gras and Carnival through the music of New Orleans (plus a bit of Brazil from me), and we got a little romantic with some cupid tunes for Valentine’s Day. I played many tunes written and produced by the great Allen Toussaint, and Scott played a great mixture of classics and surprises, including perhaps the most romantic tune ever: Hulk Hogan’s entrance music. Listen below!
