Although funerals in New Orleans had long been accompanied by a brass band performance, Barker did not want a jazz funeral for himself. Changes in the way funerals were performed through the 1970s, 80s, and 90s (including dress, repertoire, and conduct) discouraged Barker from requesting a band for his own funeral. Barker believed that modern funerals failed to show appropriate respect for the deceased and the tradition of jazz funeral parades. SO COME SEE THE BMOL ANNUAL PARADE AT SWEET LORRAINE'S
