Torrent description

Way back, 1965, I taped/recorded these songs on my cassettedeck (I still have these tapes!), straight from the airplay radio stations, then I ran some copies for my friends.
Nowadays I do the same, only the technical possibilities are better now,
still I run copies to share, so enjoy, because this music is worth it.
A+
scans included.

The turning point in Chenier's career came when Lightnin' Hopkins' wife, who was a cousin, introduced Chris Strachwitz, owner of the roots music label, Arhoolie, to his early recordings. Strachwitz quickly signed Chenier to Arhoolie, producing his first single, "Ay Yi Yi"/"Why Did You Go Last Night?," in four years. Although they continued to work together until the early '70s, Chenier and Strachwitz differed artistically. While Chenier wanted to record commercial-minded R&B, Strachwitz encouraged him to focus on traditional zydeco. Chenier's first album for Arhoolie, Louisiana Blues and Zydeco, featured one side of blues and R&B and one side of French two-steps and waltzes.
