J'ai Ete Au Bal

Cajun fiddler and vocalist Dewey Balfa performs this spirited Cajun classic about going to the dance last night, tonight, an possibly tomorrow night. He is accompanied by his brothers Will (fiddle), Rodney (Guitar) and Burkeman (triangle). Terry Bertrand is on banjo.The song was recorded in Basile during the early seventies, as part of French filmmaker Jean-Pierre Bruneau’s documentary classic “Dedans Le Sud De La Louisiane.”
