Recently I offered you this brain-teaser sent in by James Sterling of Florida.

Ivan,
I began a mind game with myself recently trying to list all of the traditional jazz song titles with New Orleans street and place names. The thought occurred that this might make a good brain-teaser for your blog.
So far I have come up with:
Bourbon Street (Parade)
South Rampart Street (Parade)
Franklin Street (Blues)
Gravier Street (Blues)
Basin Street (Blues) (Stomp)
Burgundy Street (Blues)
Canal Street (Blues)
Perdido Street (Blues)
Bienville (Blues)
Storyville (Blues)
Milneburg (Joys)
West End (Blues)
St. James Infirmary
(Relaxing at ) The Touro
