There’s a mix of music and interview on this video, featuring Cedric Watson and Bijou Creole, and it’s well worth listening to the whole thing. This was recorded live on KEXP a community public radio station operated by the University of Washington.
Accordion freaks will notice right away that Mr. Watson is playing a two-row Hohner. That’s something I’d expect in Newfoundland but not so much in Louisiana. He also plays a mean fiddle. I think these guys are a terrific band. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Meh. Give me BeauSoleil.
Har! If you said give me Aldus Roger I’d say, OK point taken, or if you said give me Clifton Chenier, I’d say, OK he was the King after all, or if you said give me the Balfa Brothers, I’d say no contest….
Yikes I realize when I fixed the link I put the abbreviated performance in, not the whole thing with the fiddle piece and the interview. Fixed now, but then if you didn’t like the one song, you likely won’t like more.
BooZoo Chavis….?
Yes!
Hmmm, the video wouldn’t play for me. Maybe it’s just taking a break. I’ll check back later.
Mea culpa. I think I may have made a copy/paste error. Try it now and thanks for pointing out the problem!
