Platter Playlists: Collected

Paul Dufrene's playlists, collected in one place

Paul Dufrene—blogger, music collector, playlist curator, and the man behind the curtain at platterplaylists.com—agreed to compile ten exclusive mixes for Country Roads readers. One playlist will be released each month, attending to themes that resonate with Louisianans—ex-pat and local, alike. Here they are, collected in one place for easy enjoyment.

  4. Eatin' in Louisiana: Celebrating Louisiana cuisine

  6. Dreamin' in Louisiana: Dreams and their dreamers ruled Louisiana’s musical landscape in the mid-twentieth century 
  7. The Great Louisiana Cover-up: The art of covering songs, Louisiana style
  8. Louisiana Animal Farm: A mix that takes a turn to rural Louisiana, where animals reign supreme
