We continue our series of music interviews recorded during this year's New Orleans Jazz Fest, this week with JIMMY CARTER, a founding member of the BLIND BOYS OF ALABAMA. Bob spoke with Carter in a classroom at the New Hope Baptist Church in New Orleans before the group performed for a packed house. The Blind Boys' latest CD is titled "Duets" and features the group singing with the likes of Solomon Burke, Bonnie Raitt, Lou Reed and Ben Harper.
Bob speaks with New Hope Baptist Church deacons ARTHUR GARRETT and ERIC BROWN about life in New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina. Garrett is the chairman of the church and Brown is a former banker and works as New Hope's chief financial officer.
Bob Edwards Weekend is a two-hour interview showcase, in which celebrated host Bob Edwards highlights the life and work of interesting people, from newsmakers, historians, and authors to artists, actors, and regular folks too.
