The Balfa Brothers - Parlez Nous A Boire

Back


Track: Parlez Nous A Boire Artist: The Balfa Brothers Album: The Balfa Brothers Play Traditional Cajun Music: Vols. 1 & 2 Label: Swallow Records This is a studio version of the wonderful track featured in the movie Southern Comfort. Unfortunately, as best I know, the complete movie soundtrack was never released, so if you want to hear it in all its glory you'll have to buy the DVD. It's a good movie and the soundtrack, produced by Ry Cooder, is excellent. Here's Dewey Balfa describing his 1964 appearance at the Newport Folk Festival, the first time Cajun music had featured there - "I had played in house dances, family gatherings, maybe a dance hall where you might have seen as many as two hundred people at once. In fact, I doubt I had ever seen two hundred people at once. And in Newport, there were seventeen thousand. Seventeen thousand people who wouldn't let us get off stage." http://www.balfatoujours.com/brothers.html
