Not so much jazz

 

… as southern Louisiana music. Problem with that is Tuba Skinny were over in France near Lyon at the time.

An old YT from Breaux Bridge … Zydeco:

This final one, the Cajun … mixed feelings. The keyboardist was a right prat, the guitar was OTT and did not suit this music, the best imho were the fiddler and saxophonist.

Now, Kelli Jones-Savoy … she joined in 2014 when the other girl went to a rock circus with animals … KJ-S was not from cajun, creole country, she had to learn some French … this performance was in 2017. I’ve seen later work in the 2020s … she and the leader got on well. Then, in 2023, that leader was killed in a car crash.

Not saying too much but how that keyboardist acted in the song … I could imagine some wildness in their lifestyles. Tragic.

One reply

  1. Nos.1 and 2 for me, enjoyed them both. Not keen on no.3 – I agree, the keyboard and guitar didn’t work. I’m sure I’ve seen the first dancing couple in no.1 dancing in another video. Anyway it was good to watch.

    ……

    JH: I’ve added some detail below the YT, AKH. Dancing in another video? ☺️ How about Shaye Cohen at 27s dancing in song 3, also playing in song 1 in France?
