From The Other Side of the Mirror

Here’s this weeks show which featured the man who engineered virtually every R&B record made in New Orleans between the late 40’s and early 1970’s, Cosimo Matassa. He helped put the music of New Orleans on the musical map…..oh…and he owned the studios they recorded them in too.
