Tony Vincent
Newsletter No. 7 July 2001 ‘Til I Waltz Again With You For various reasons, the group went their separate ways and Tony enjoyed a brief spell with Tony Vincent the Rock'n'Roll All-Stars before reforming his own group as Rock Mobile with Les Bailey on drums 7 th July 1946 to 5 th July 1994 and Terry Glasse back again on bass. In the mid- seventies, while playing The Fountain at Tooting, Tony announced to the other two that he was changing the name to CSA and a legend was born. You may have seen CSA at the Old Tigers Head in Lee Green, Hackney Hospital, The Adam and Eve in Hackney, The Castle in Tooting, The Telegraph in Brixton Hill, The Fountain in Tooting, The Gun in Croydon, the United Ex-Services Club in Carshalton, or Croydon Football Club in South Norwood among many other venues. You may have been on one of the many Rockers Reunion Tony Collick, known to everybody as Tony Runs or the Annual Party where CSA almost Vincent, the best loved milkman in the south died always played. two days before his 47th birthday. Three days earlier marked the passing of a Rock'n'Roll legend The venue I most associate with CSA was the – CSA played for the last time at the Magpie’s Leslie Arms, Addiscombe on Thursday and Nest on Bromley Common. Sunday nights (Thursday was Country and Sunday Rock'n'Roll). Admission on both these For those who don’t know, Tony Vincent was the nights was free, as were most of CSA’s gigs (a lead guitarist and singer with a band called CSA. -
UPDATED & REVISED 5 EDITION* Cover Design by Bob Mcgrath
UPDATED & REVISED 5th EDITION* Cover design by Bob McGrath CAJUN RECORDS 1946-1989 – A DISCOGRAPHY © Nick Leigh 2019 INTRODUCTION TO THE REVISED EDITIONS I began collecting blues records in 1959 but it was another 7 years before I heard Cleveland Crochet & the Sugar Bees on the Storyville anthology “Louisiana Blues”. My appetite whetted, I wanted more. Buying the Iry Le Jeune LPs on Goldband a few months later (not one but two volumes – and purchased as imports on a student’s allowance!) fuelled an appreciation of Cajun music that has remained undiminished. In the mid 1960s, however, there was little information available about the great music I was listening to, other than the catalogues I obtained from Goldband and Swallow, and the early articles by Mike Leadbitter and John Broven in “Blues Unlimited” and “Jazz Journal”. Thanks to people like Mike, John, Neil Slaven, Rob Ford and Les Fancourt there is now a lot of information available to provide the background to blues and rhythm & blues recordings. However much of the information about the post World War 2 music of South Louisiana in general and the French (Cajun) recordings in particular, remains elusive. So far as I know no single ‘discography’ of post-war Cajun record releases has been published and I thought I would try to correct this oversight. This is notwithstanding the increasing amount of well researched material about the music in general and individual artists. Therefore I take only limited credit for the information included herein about the recordings. My aim has been to bring that material together in a single document. -

LOUISIANA ROMP: EXAMINING THE PERFORMANCE OF TRADITIONAL CAJUN MUSIC WITHIN A CONTEMPORARY SETTING Katherine Conrad Doss A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of the Arts in the Curriculum in Folklore. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: William R. Ferris James L. Peacock Patricia E. Sawin 2008 Katherine Conrad Doss ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT KATHERINE CONRAD DOSS: Louisiana Romp: Examining the Performance of Traditional Cajun Music Within a Contemporary Setting (Under the direction of William R. Ferris) The Lost Bayou Ramblers, a young Cajun band based in South Louisiana, infuse energy and vivacity into the traditional creative expression of Cajun music, as they travel to share their sound and thus their culture with the world. I suggest that the Ramblers, in the face of globalization, are purposefully engaged in protecting and enhancing their culture by performing this roots music far and near. They offer a compelling performance and thus transport, produce, and extend their culture through music, which serves as a powerful symbol, drawing each audience into participation of it. Through a focus on the specific dynamic between culture, its music, and the performance techniques of these particular cultural practitioners, I examine how music acts as an agent of cultural understanding while simultaneously transforming the place and culture that produced it. iii DEDICATION To the members of the Lost Bayou Ramblers, whose inimitable talent and vision captured me and countless others, drawing us into their world. Their willingness to extend their friendship and share their stories, insights, sense of humor, dance tips and van space is deeply appreciated. -

And to remember that just 250 JAMBALAYA years ago our ancestors were stripped of everything they had, but their dignity, honesty and AND THE GUIDRY religion, put on ships and sent to outposts throughout North America and Europe. They CONNECTION refused to be exterminated and grew as a community in the ensuing years. The story of by R. Martin Guidry their survival through horrific times and their ability to overcome all odds and produce off- spring that could rise to the tops of their professional fields is truly a story that should be told. Almost everyday I learn of a new leader from our family. Yesterday it was Valérie BON APPETIT: 5 Recipes from the Plante, the new Mairess (Mayor) of Montréal, Canada. Ms. Plante is a direct descendant Guédry/Labine/ of Claude Petitpas and Catherine Bugaret through their daughter Henriette, wife of Prudent Petitpas Family Robichaud. In this issue we honor Ms. Marie Ginette Petitpas Taylor – the new Minister of Health for Canada. BOOK NOOK 6 Our next Guédry & Petitpas Reunion is just 18 months away. That may seem a long time, but it will be here before we know it. We have begun planning for the Reunion. -

G The dawn of modern Cajun music! G Records so rare that just a few copies exist of most of them! G Very few of these recordings ever reissued on 45, LP, or CD until now! G Songs include the original version of Diggy Liggy Lo plus Big Texas...the song that Hank Williams adapted into Jambalaya. INFORMATION This was a set years in the making. It took ages to figure out exactly how many classic Cajun recordings had been made by le- gendary record producer J.D. Miller in the 1940s and ‘50s, and then it took even longer to find them and painstakingly restore the sound. Finally, Cajun music expert Lyle Ferbrache tried to track down as many of the survivors and relatives as possible for the extensive book. But it was well worth the wait! The result is a classic roots music collection done as only BEAR FAMILY can do it! From 1946 to 1959, J.D. Miller released all forms of French language records, from the beautiful fiddle and guitar records of Oran 'Doc' Guidry and Leroy 'Happy Fats' Leblanc to the raucous recordings of Robert Bertrand and the Lake Charles Playboys.
