Re: Early Cajun Music: "Iota Two Step" - Nathan Abshire

I've wondered about the roots of the song "La Vie Maheureuse" on the Courtboullion album. And so there it is.

Thanks!!! What a resource for this music and culture.

"La Vie Malheureuse" is older than Nathan's tune. It was recorded by the Walker Brothers in 1929.
