It is Steve Riley, but I can't remember what the title is or what CD it is on. I think it is one of the earlier ones though.

It's the Blues the Saoulard or Drunkards Blues.
On the second instruction DVD Steve shows how to play it and on youtube Maz is playing the same song.
You find the song on his second CD "Tit Galop Pour Mamou"

Re: Ok folks what song is this they are playing in this video.

Is the tune Blues du Saoulard?
For this video, I think we should name it the "Dizzy Camera Special"...oh man, I can barely watch the video.

Re: Re: Ok folks what song is this they are playing in this video.

It is Blues de Soulard.

Blues du Soulard

Oh that's great, now I have a frame of reference to sing the lyrics... I had never heard the song with the lyrics! I have attach Blue du Soulard YouTube clip at Link #3.
