Old Susanna

I found out this morning that this makes a pretty peppy cajun sounding tune!!!!!!!!!! Bruce

Re: Old Susanna

You mean Oh Susanna ?
So does "The Old Gray Mare" and "Streets of Laredo". They're pretty good when "cajunized". Fast tempo, lots of bounce and squeeze, two key chords, play with the melody and a lot of stuff can happen.

How about transforming Little Duece Coupe or Barbara Ann by the Beach Boys

"...you don't know what I got" is kind of like "Back Door"
