Recordist's notes
*Best with headphones* : Sounds that reached me while sitting at the fountain in front of St. Louis Cathedral; waiting for the bell to sound at noon. People talking about the heat, and other obvious things. Music filtering in from around the French Quarter. Church Audio CA14(quasi binaural) > Tascam DR100 MK2
