Sorry to butt in guys but this topic really interests me. I too have been in ore of the Aldus Roger Bosco Stomp footage and funilly enough have only just bought an Iry Lejeune collection, I've also started messing around with drum machines! That Eunice 2 step is something I've kept returning to but not nailed- the Geno version got me started. In the sleeve notes by Ann Savoy she states of Jolie Catin; "A classic in both black and white scenes in Louisiana, originally recorded by amede Ardoin. It is melodically and poetically one of the finest examples of traditional cajun music" then goes on to include the lyrics.
All this speed thing makes me think of a little pill called French Blues, which ties into Northern Soul and the allnighters over here in England, like you with the Honky Tonk, soul funk and hippy stuff wasn't fast enough on the beat for those dancers. Working folks want something good, fast and solid for the good times at the weekend.
Another one which you can find on youtube which for me ties in with this strain of playing is Hathaway two step by Mamou Hour Cajun band, have been trying to nail that one for a long time, some of it sounds almost Irish to me.

Time to get up to speed, ha!

I say you welcome anytime! Dat "Jolie Catin" is da unobtainium of cajun music. You get dat one down in the speed Iry and Wayne Toup plays it, and you join da ranks of da special ones.

To help you learn it, Wayne Toups cd "Reflections of the Past" has a three song acoustic session at da very end. He plays Jolie Catin on a "D" accordion, and you can match up to it if you try hard enough. The sound is way more clear than Iry's old classic recordings. Doze 3 acoustic songs are da whole reason I bought da cd when it came out. Enspiring to say the least!
