I am a Texan not Cajun but I can really appreciate this music. Love the accordion he was really great.

We lost the great Nathan Abshire in 1981, and in 1999 Aldus Roger passed...another legend gone. R.I.P. Aldus, your music will live on in Louisiana and continue to inspire younger Cajun musicians for many years to come.

@Goethefemme Who do you think Paul learned it from ;-)

[Goethefemme]

You all have to admit, Mr Paul Daigle does a good job on this, too.

@hajimaji Sterlings were made in Germany. The facory was destroyed during WWII.

Any idea when that Sterling would have been made?

I could cry, oh man oh man, such an icon! That hat, those glasses, down to that white shirt and that stage presence and yes...that playing. All business, hard-driving, no frills. The king.
