Awesome. Thank y'all all for the suggestions.

My Spotify playlist now has more than 100 songs.

As I mentioned some -- like the CCR, the Cash Money, the zydeco -- aren't directly Mardi Gras songs, but I put them in because they fit in my mind (party songs with Louisiana feel).

HeadyBrosevelt — I couldn’t find any of the three you suggested on Spotify to add to my running playlist, but those are solid picks nonetheless.

NoSaint — the “Gypsyphonic Mardi Gras (Full Mix) track is surprisingly legit considering mashup stuff isn’t usually my favorite.

Zappas Stache — Thanks for the suggestion but I’m not feeling the Mardi Gras mood in that one.

Marco Esquandolas — I got “Take Me to the Mardi Gras” and “That was Your Mother” added to my Spotify list.

Mr. Hangover — No clue how I missed Buckwheat Zydeco but I added a few picks into the Spotify list.

LSUDuke — I got La Danse des Mardi Gras by Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys on the Spotify list. This song became one of my favorites when I lived in Lafayette. Solid suggestion!

LSU2006 — I, too, eat a peach for peace everytime I’m in Georgia, but you gotta do better than dropping Fess 10 posts into a Mardi Gras song suggestion thread.

ChoupiqueSacalait — I’m not sure if I’ve heard those two before, but I like both. Sadly, neither appears to be on Spotify so I can’t add them there.

I'll keep adding to the Spotify playlist as I think of, and y'all suggest, more songs.

Damn strong playlist.

Not really a Mardi Gras song and you already have a good bit of Meters, but "They All Ask'd For You" always puts me in a good New Orleans mood.

ETA:
Wild Tchoupitoulas - Meet De Boys On De Battlefront
Wild Magnolias - Ho Na Nae
Wild Magnolias - Smoke My Peace Pipe

It's one of the most iconic Mardi Gras songs and no one had mentioned it yet. Sue me and/or GTFO
