I bought this lp a few weeks ago just because i loved the sleeve and the title and was not disappointed by the music also. In fact it's a great record, issued in 1981 on Rooster Records, from a duo of two girls who sing in harmony and play guitar and fiddle some very fine cajun, old-time country, Delmore Brothers numbers. They are accompanied by friends from the west-coast old-timey/folk/bluegrass community and among them, surprise, some of my all-time favorite musicians, Jody Stecher and Eric and Suzy Thompson who provide their vocals and instrumentals excellence on some tracks.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the info, Claude.
Wonderful stuff! A delightful listen! I love a most of the stuff I've sampled here. Thankyou!
Would it be possible to reup the Ernie & Emilio Caceres from last year?
yes, we are kindred spirits gadaya. you know, i've found that the other people who share a very similar musical taste also have a similar outlook on life. it's more than just 'taste' i think, it's a part of a whole worldview. blessings on your path brother!
ps. yes, i have a guitar and a banjo i'm learning how to play
great record!
Re-renewed my interest in the Delmore Brothers. And a fine example of cajun-styled harmonica playing on Le Blues Mes Preund. Thanks.
Off topic, I love your blog as a whoel and am regularly checking back to see if you have uploaded any "new" treasures.
