  • Our family has roots from California to Texas to Louisiana and Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts. I have always loved New Orleans and the people of the Bayou and now I see our family lived there for years. Check out this amazing piece of American Musical History and Innovation. The Rubboard, built for Cleveland Chenier by Willie Landry is a variation of the Zydeco Washboard.

  • Dagnabbit, I want to see the actual process of bending taking place, not just shots of already bent material. Landsakes and a cotton pickin mercy hallelujah.
