Having performed "Bastille Day" concerts regularly over the last 6 years, I have become accustomed to immersing myself in a range of French musical styles. I particularly like the café accordion. Dans ce troquet du vieil Agen On est tous devenus Cajuns On a sifflé quelques gorgeons En écoutant l’accordéon I cannot express it better than that.  Great job, Chris.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

Hi, Chris. That's some salty snap peas... I mean, some yummy zydeco!  Good to hear some under-represented styles here, especially done so well!

Thanks Brian, David and bloc-head. The origin of Zydeco music comes from a french song " Les haricots sont pas salés " The snap beans aren't salty !

Oh, this reminds me of walking around ANYWHERE in New Orleans. Such outstanding music coming from every doorway. I once played in a Zydeco band with another BiaB member, Zydecoal (sic). You bring out all of the fun and mystery in the genre so well, Christian. Christian Braut does an excellent vocal, and you provided the perfect band for him. Good write!!

Captured the essence of the genre. Band works well, Christian's vocals fit nicely.

Always nice to hear a French song on the forum. This is a very nice one. Love the accordions.

You had me from the first measure.
Excellent vocal and mix
Outstanding work with those accordions
Two thumbs up
I went line dancing last night. Well it was a roadside sobriety test, same thing.

Cool tune. I have no clue what is being said, but it sounds good doing it.
My daughter is living and working in NO currently.
