Bounce For Relief: The Best Of New Orleans Bounce Vol. 2

Bounce For Relief Vol. 2

Cocaine Blunts dropped Bounce For Relief Vol. 1 back in 2005 and they have finally followed it up with Vol. 2 and it’s a big mix.

Here we veer into the gangsta bounce of early Cash Money and another of the stronger labels from that era – Pack. It’s also bookended by two proto-bounce tracks Gregory D & Mannie Fresh’s “Buck Jump Time” and the J Ro J’s brass band “Buck Jump” knock off “Let’s Jump.” Like the first the song selection consists of mostly classics with a few lesser known titles sprinkled in. Sorry about the crackle and fuzz on some tracks, you know how it goes. Please continue to support New Orleans in any way you can.
