Re: New Amede Ardoin Collection

Cajun Early Recordings, JSP7726, has 2 of Ardoin's 34 songs.

Cajun Country, JSP7749, has 18 of the 34 songs.

Rare and Authentic Cajun, JSP77115, has the other 14 of the 34 songs and they are already remastered by Chris King.

So at most it's possibly 20 of the 34 song newly remastered, but that's enough for me to order it.

It's the Cajun Country cd that has some sound problems especially on Valse à Austin Ardoin and Valse des Amities. The Arhoolie versions of those two songs (on CD7007, I'm Never Coming Back) do not sound any better to me.

Re: New Amede Ardoin Collection

I'm never coming back is a pleasure to listen at, but if they can make the sound quality better it would be great.
Does somebody knows how they made the recordings in that time.
There were recorders with iron-wire in those days and I saw in the movie "Oh Brother Were Are Thou" a machine that directly cut the mother record ?
