Re: La Mazurka de la Louisiane

That was very nice and I really enjoyed it. Its a wonderful production
of a beautiful song and film. I too thought that was Bascom Lamar Lunsford at the end. ( I live near Asheville NC).

Thanks very much.... Ed

Re: La Mazurka de la Louisiane

You touched my heart, which is hard to do. I loved it. There is real soul here. In a way, it reminded me of one of my favorite songs: Floyd Cramer's "Last Date". I would buy a whole CD of this type of music. Thank you sir.

Re: La Mazurka de la Louisiane

Magnifique bon job partout! Bien merci! J'vas l'donner l'tit nom "Mazurka Préféré"

Re: La Mazurka de la Louisiane

LA MAZURKA - words & music by Gerard Dole


Allons danser dans la Louisiane la mazurka
Dans une cabane d'la campagne
Une maison d'chats
Dans un hangar où tous les soirs
Va y avoir un gros hourra
Allons danser dans la Louisiane la mazurka



Le Cajun Freeze quand tu courtises
Non c'est pas bon
Y faut tu trapes et tu lâches plus ta jolie blonde
C'est pas les pètes d'une vieille pépette
Qui va faire l'affaire dans mes bras
Allons danser dans la Louisiane la mazurka



Allons danser dans la Louisiane la mazurka
Dans les clos d'cannes, sur les savanes
Dans les grands bois
Droite sur l'écore d'la rivière
Et p't'être même au ras des bassières
Allons danser dans la Louisiane la mazurka





Gérard Dôle: Acadian accordion & lead vocal
Christine Dôle Louveau de la Guigneraye: rhythm guitar & vocals
Danielle Schlencker aka Lollypop: triangle & vocals
Wilson Savoy & Mitch Reed: fiddles
Lisa Reed: bass guitar & vocals

Recorded August 29, 2006 at La Louisianne Records,
Lafayette, La.,
David Rachou ingeneer
