Re: Two steps and waltzes hardly anyone plays anymore

In going through those very old recordings, like you, looking for recordings not done much anymore, I stumbled onto Slim Doucet. Only two recordings I know of, but love them both, Waxia Special (later recorded by Steve Riley) and Chere Yeux Noirs (not same tune as Lawrence Walker's). There's quite a few like that.

Another thought is going through old fiddle tunes, and seeing if any can be put to the bellows.

Re: Two steps and waltzes hardly anyone plays anymore

Yep, check out that old music like WF listed, and what's on Neal's "Hadacol It Something" site. It's a shame some of them old tunes have faded away. Octa Clark also has a few that aren't heard in the dance halls much. Also some of the new groups, like Lost Bayou Ramblers and Pineleaf Boys have some good original tunes. No doubt hearing the same few songs over and over get old.

Re: Two steps and waltzes hardly anyone plays anymore

I am amazed that all you people would allow this dick licker to make such an uncalled for comment like that to Brandon. What you all like you peter pulled by a no body? You sit there playing with this ******* clown like he's your friend. I for one would tell this sleezy ***** to his face what a ******* idiot he is. Unfortunately we have no idea who or what it is that goes by the name greezy
