It's a free "bonus" download below the picture of the album (which is for sale).

I used to cover N.O. music for a regional zine and a Baton Rouge radio station, and the Continental Drifters music gave me a renewed appreciation for both the Susan Cowsill's songwriting, and Vicki Peterson's (from the Bangles).

Having just listened to the song, the image I got (re the snow) wasn't so foreboding. It was more a wishful desire that the wind and rain would return to the peaceful snow of the year before (in addition to all the wonderful pre-Katrina traditions that hopefully will return... I've already been back to the Cafe du Monde!).

I've had the same thought about the snow. I remember when my brother (who used to live 4 houses from the 17th St. Canal breech) called me on Christmas Day 2004 and told me they had snow! I've wished more than once that N.O. could retrieve some of that magic, and that that were the only unusual weather event to hit my hometown in the past year.
