replies: text: This is what a came up with, quick and dirty.  The Wild Tchoupitoulas were originally a group of Margi Gras Indians formed in the early 1970's by George Landry.  With help from local New Orleans musicians The Meters, The Wild Tchoupitoulas recorded an eponymous album, which featured the "call-and-response" style chants typical of Mardi Gras Indians.  Vocals were provided by Landry, as "Big Chief Jolly", as well as other members of his Mardi Gras tribe.  Instrumentation was provided in part by members of  the Meters.  The album also notably featured his nephews, the Neville Brothers, providing harmonies and some of the instrumentation.  While not a financial success, the effort was well received critically and the experience recording it encouraged the four Neville brothers to perform together for the first time as a group. I pulled all info from the 3 links you provided.  (plus the meters wiki page to confirm that names of performers were members of the meters)  CarbonX 22:25, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Great! How about being bold and adding it to the article, wikifying it and remove the "attention=yes" flag from the New Orleans project banner here and the cleanup template from the article? Thanks, BNutzer 22:42, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done.  First time doing that major of an edit, so lemme know if I borked anything.  Thanks.  CarbonX 23:20, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks again! The bold typeface for the introductory mentioning of the group's name was missing, and the external links are references in this case - I adjusted that - and changed "his nephews" to "Landry's nephews" for clarification. I also added the text to the album article. BNutzer 21:25, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

text: The page needs more content about The Wild Tchoupitoulas in itself as a Mardi Gras Indian tribe, including an update. The content about the album belongs on The Wild Tchoupitoulas (album) page, as the album is notable also for its historical connection with the Neville Brothers. Therefore I don't agree with the Merge suggestion on Talk: The Wild Tchoupitoulas (album)#Merge?. -- Deborahjay (talk) 14:43, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

message: The lead sentence of the page describes the tribe as being founded by George Landry, and later associates him with the figure of "Big Chief Jolly." Did Landry use this name from the start?  -- Deborahjay (talk) 14:31, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
