Re: Early Cajun Music: "Waltz of the Mulberry Limb" - Iry Lejeune

Thanks John. That means alot. I'm getting alot of help from the usual people we all know around here, which helps. It's not perfect and i'm always going back and making updates. It's garnered some attention from a few historians and authors as well as radio station in San Francisco. I may be doing a 2hr segment on some the songs on KPOO at the end of the month. Should be fun. We'll see how that goes.

btw, if anyone has intimate knowledge about a song, feel free to send it along. Hopefully, over time, we can collect this information in one place for easy reference and sharing.

Re: Early Cajun Music: "Waltz of the Mulberry Limb" - Iry Lejeune

It's important to preserve the music and the stories (there's always more than one) that go along with the music.

I particularly liked the story that went along with Belezere. Adds a lot of personality to the songs.
