Old Time Louisiana Creole Music (La Vieille Musique Créole de la Louisiane)
Joseph "BéBé" Carrière - Fiddle & Vocals (On B); Éraste "Dolan" Carrière - Accordion & Vocals (On E); Linton Broussard - Drums (On # 16 - 19)

The Carrière Brothers have preserved for us a wide ranging repertoire of authentic African-American rural Louisiana Creole music ranging from old marzurkas, polkas, and Creole songs to more recent blues, cajun, and zydeco numbers. Their music is born out of these sharecropping families who worked from sunup to sundown planting, hoeing and harvesting, and then played music at house parties in the evening, usually earning barely enough to survive.
