Great stuff!
The 1st tune is that Rockin' Dopsie Sr. is on is referred to by Rockin Dopsie Jr's band as "Oh Bah Bah" (sp?) when they play it. The vocal is the same as Clifton Chenier's "Louisiana Two-Step" (not to be confused with the tune Dopsie Sr. called "Louisiana Two-Step", often recorded as "Bosco Stomp"), and Dopsie's accordion part is close to "Josephine Se Par Ma Femme". That song in turn was the basis for Paul Simon's "That Was Your Mother" featuring Dopsie Sr and his band.

oh please what is the name of the first tune with Rockin Dopsie Sr, i can't find it, it sounds a lille bit like "don't mess with my toot toot" but not exactly.



Why no mention of Rockin Doopsie in your Title ?
