A musical trip around America's most exotic and musical state - Louisiana - opens to the spirited strains of our own "Goodbye Bayou"; "Louisiana you've always been good to me, Cypress trees and Spanish moss and poetry." Beginning in the northern parishes, we'll explore the reels and ballads, gospel songs and blues of the earliest settlers. Visit cotton fields along the Red River Valley and stop in Arcadia, where the outlaw couple, Bonnie and Clyde, were gunned down. We'll pick a little bluegrass, learn the secret of good Bar-B-Que, skin some deer, and go on an alligator hunt. We'll tell stories of north Louisiana's old time recording stars, Lead Belly, Jesse "Baby Face" Thomas, and the Taylor-Griggs Louisiana Melody Makers.
