Down Home Cajun Music- Clifton Chenier: Bayou Records

The rare Bayou 45 label was the idea of Arhoolie founder Chris Strachwitz. He wanted 45's of Clifton's recordings on Arhoolie to be put out on jukeboxes throughout Louisiana and Texas. He contacted Floyd at Swallow Records to press the 45's and to distribute them. Here is episode one of those recordings with a bonus live recording from Clifton from the time.
