I am waiting for too, do you have any suggestion Jamey?
If not, what about "Allons à Lafayette"? Not many single accordion versions on the net for this one...
What about a Push Blues, very rare for cajun accordion players? Do you Know "Tu peux cogner mais tu peux pas danser"? The only accordion version I saw is from Eric Martin from France (link#2)
If the SOTM should be a waltz, what about drunkard waltz (valse du bambocheur)? The only accordion versions I heard are from Austin Pitre, Belton Richard and... Meloderon
Thanks meloderon, I'll listen to Horace trahan version.
Furthermore I just realized drunkard blues is related to madame Sosthène or Sostan, so there are other accordion samples to heard now.
@Jamey, ooops, I made a mistake with the blues title, thanks! I don't have any blues in my repertoire because all cajun blues sound fiddle tune to me, and tu peux cogner mais tu peux pas rentrer too, you're right!
I don't have allons à lafayette in my repertoire yet too, so could be an good idea if everybody is ok...
Or else any other proposition guys?
Hi Bryan,
I made a mistake (again…), I am sorry.
You’re right, both tunes are completely different because drunkard blues is a blues (6/8?) and madame sosthene a waltz (9/8)…
I mean drunkard WALTZ instead BLUES…
I still have some difficulties to heard differences between Madame Sosthene and Drunkard WALTZ, in particularly when it is the accordion which plays the melody, don’t you? I’ll listen again to both tunes and try to pay attention and get the thing.
Best regards,
Greg
Prolly ought to be a waltz, since we've been doing 2-steps. Or a bluesy tune like you're suggesting. I thought it was ""Tu peux cogner mais tu peux pas RENTRER" . . . There are some great versions of that around. I thought it was mostly a fiddle tune, but here's a version with Brother Jesse supplying his usual awesomeness. And you just know that Chris Miller could tear it up!
