“Sa M’Appel Fou (They Call Me Crazy)” from Clifton Chenier’s classic 1976 zydeco album Bogalusa Boogie. #cliftonchenier #zydeco #creole #nolamusic #vinyl #recordcollection

Glimmer Twins nepřispívají na tribute alba. V případě pocty #Zydeco akordeonistovi #CliftonChenier Mick Jagger odložil svoji pařížskou fráninu a udělal si domácí úkol. V písni "Zydeco Sont Pas Salés“ zpívá dokonalou kreolskou francouzštinou z poloviny století.
Jagger se poprvé dostal na Chenierův koncert v tělocvičně střední školy v LA v roce 1978: "Vzpomínám si, že si Clifton myslel, že jsem z časopisu Rolling Stone."

Archivní klenot z cernejpudink.cz: Představujeme vám krále hudebního stylu zydeco Cliftona Cheniera. Narodil se před 100 lety. Z akordeonu vydoloval zvuk Louisiany – od ropných polí po Grammy. Příběh odvahy a nezdolného ducha, který stále rezonuje.

Special Memorial #ChrisStrachwitz Episode of @AccordionNoir Radio

Sharing bits of a 2014 interview with Chris talking about his years working with #Accordion greats like #CliftonChenier in the early days of #Zydeco

And the monumental work Chris did at #ArhoolieRecords sharing #Cajun #Creole #Conjunto #Norteno #Bluegrass and #Trad #FolkMusic

Thanks Chris for appreciating accordions, unlike many #FolkRevival peers who [he said] just wanted to “bang on guitars” 🎸❤️‍🔥🪗

#ChrisStrachwitz was rare among American folk revivalists for appreciating the #Accordion before it had it's first "revival" in the 1980s (led by artists he helped bring to attention)

He laughed telling me how much #AlanLomax hated accordions (Mentioned in my #AccordionRevolution 🪗📚🤓)

Thanks to clearer ears like Chris’s, we have reissues like these of #CliftonChenier
