The buckle-polishers and skirt-swirlers are back! Presenting 28 rare goodies from Louisiana and South East Texas.
The culture of South Louisiana is steeped in backbreaking toil, followed by any excuse for a party. Every small town has its own festival, generally based on the local food. The music of the area is designed for dancing and forms a part of the people's DNA. The same can be said for those just across the Sabine River in SE Texas, who share a cultural background, including the love of music and a good time. So turn the clock back 50+ years, transport yourself to the steamy heat of a South Louisiana night and let the music of this 17th release in the By The Bayou series wash over you.
Ian Saddler's latest compilation contains the tried-and-tested mixture of hits and rarities, plus three previously unreleased nuggets. The CD features a young Johnny Winter, an uncle of Dolly Parton and some rare early James Burton guitar picking.
