Evangeline Parish was immortalized in the Randy Newman song "Louisiana 1927", in which he described the Great Mississippi Flood which covered it with six feet of water.
The events include the nonstop transatlantic flight of Charles Lindbergh; the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927; the amazing season played by Babe Ruth and the rest of the 1927 New York Yankees; the transition from the Ford Model T to the new Model A; the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti; and the advent of the talking-picture era with the release of The Jazz Singer.
