Re: Speaking of Evangeline Special

I could tell Chicot was a little different, especially the B part. What I thought was that they were close enough that I wondered if they had the same origin but got individual playing differences from playing by ear. Juse mindless speculation.

I usually read the comments on Youtube, but hadn't watched the Evangeline Special yet, to busy watching the Mamou Two Step and Jetais Au bal. I spent a lot of time trying to learn the Mamou Two Step by ear and couldnt get the B part, then one day accidently realized it was in a different key. That was cool. I'm watching your's to fine tune. I absolutely cannot learn a tune by watching a video, but they are helpful for me to fine tune one I got the basics of.
