One of the highlights of EMP New Orleans was listening to author Jason Berry interview Hudson Marquez about his finding Professor Longhair in New Orleans in 1969 or so. Marquez told awesome stories about going to the Dew Drop Inn when he was 13 and seeing r'n'b greats, ranted about Jazz & Heritage Fest founder Quint Davis stealing credit for finding 'Fess and about the NOPD, and much more. Just found this link about this guy who also created the cadillac ranch. His comments about Springsteen on the link are pretty funny too.
