Singing In the Streets

Carolyn and I saw Elvis in an old movie called ‘King Creole’ a couple of years ago. The movie is set in New Orleans around 1940 . Good story. The first half of the movie is excellent but the last half falls apart. The opening scene has a young lady walking down a street in the French Quarter pushing a cart of crawfish and announcing their sale by singing; fade into Elvis picking up the song…

Anyhow I have these ladies walking the street here with bread, cashews and other things balanced on their heads and announcing their sale in song. The singing is bright and echos up and down several blocks.
