I'll always be appreciative of those who saw value in our culture before we did, and most importantly, recorded it. Many thanks to JP Bruneau for this film, and generously making it available for free viewing and downloading. Link #2. Filmed almost entirely in my home area of Mamou.
Way cool....
I had never heard of Bee Fontenot or that song. His style is great.
The other really cool thing about this video is Clifton Chenier pronouncing his own name "SHEN-YAY" , not SHE-NEER."
Can't stand it when I hear boozoo's last name pronounced CHAY-VIS, instead of SHA-VEE.
Ici ons parle Francais.....
Great video.
BTW, today I just finished watching J'ai 'etez' au bal,by les blank.
