Michael Stone – Rajun Cajun & Tambourine Show©
,Rajun Cajun & Tambourine Show© at The North Forida Antique Tractor Association show in Glen St. Mary Florida.
He may be the best tambourine player in the world. Regardless, he is a tambourine playing sensation. See and hear recording artist Michael Stone perform to the best of Louisiana music called Cajun, Swamp Pop, and Zydeco. Swamp Pop is a nice blend of Louisiana Cajun mixed with New Orleans Rhythm & Blues. We also have a golden oldie Rock ‘N’ Roll tribute show that we can do for you. We perform at festivals, fairs, parties, groups, benefits and at many other special occasions. Some of our shows are free of charge to certain causes. Ask us about this. We have done hundreds of shows, and some as far away as Oklahoma. We have performed shows for the U.S. Government, State Government and several County Governments. And, in 2007, our show was the opening act for ” Elvis ” at a large VA Medical Center Hospital. Michael’s unique talent and ability with the tambourine has been noted around the world and he is called one of the very best professional players of the Half Moon Rhythm Tech Tambourine. Our four videos on YouTube have each received 5 star ratings. His one hour non-stop performance is in costume and with choreography. During the performance, you will see him in his Stetson hat and sunglasses making moves with the tambourine that you did not even know could be made. He performs on average to about 20 songs per show. The unique musical beat of Louisiana music and early Rock ‘N’ Roll music has appeal to all ages. At most of our shows the audiences will get up on their feet and dance. Tony Joe White had a # 1 hit with Polk Salad Annie. He said, “You can’t listen to swamp music without moving!”. The shows have received national attention in the media on several occasions. His 2 CD’s were recorded in the studios of Starlight Records. A third CD is scheduled to be recorded and released next year. Our shows are suitable for the entire family. They are rated G. We are pleased to have a part in helping to keep alive the Louisiana music tradition and the tradition of early Rock ‘N’ Roll music.

Maria Muldaur – My Tennessee Mountain Home ‘Live Recording’
This is a live version of Maria Muldaur doing Dolly Parton’s ‘My Tennessee Mountain Home.’ I think it is great and especially like the Cajun-style fiddle in the beginning. Enjoy!
Lyrics:
Sittin’ on the front porch on a summer afternoon
In a straightback chair on two legs, leans against the wall
Watch the kids a’ playin’ with June bugs on a string
And chase the glowin’ fireflies when evenin’ shadows fall
Chorus:
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby’s sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
Honeysuckle vine clings to the fence along the lane
Their fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet
And on a distant hilltop, an eagle spreads its wings
An’ a songbird on a fence post sings a melody
Chorus
Walkin’ home from church on a Sunday with the one ya’ love
Just laughin’, talkin’, making future plans
And when the folks ain’t lookin’, you might steal a kiss or two
Sittin’ in the porch swing, holdin’ hands
Chorus

Acadian-Cajun Early homes_0001.wmv
Louisiana Acadian (Cajuns) Homes
The Acadians (French: Acadiens, IPA: [akadj??]) are the descendants of the seventeenth-century French colonists who settled in Acadia (located in the Canadian Maritime provinces — Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and in the US state of Maine). The settlers whose descendants became Acadians did not all come from the same region in France.
In the Great Expulsion of 1755-1763, mostly during the Seven Years’ War, British colonial officers and New England legislators and militia deported more than 14,000 Acadians from the maritime region in what could be called an ethnic cleansing . Approximately one third perished. Gradually, some managed to make their way to Louisiana, creating the Cajun population and culture after mixing with others
When the Acadians first arrrived in Louisiana, some put up quick, temporary shelters made of wood and palmetto leaves. The Native Americans had been building such dwellings for years. Built upon a pole frame, palmettos would be uses on the roof (as was straw in France and Acadia). Many also used palmetto for walls until wood could be cut.
When they had the time to build a more substantial structure, they often built homes by putting wood vertically into the ground for walls. These 2nd generation Acadian homes (1766-1827) were either poteaux en terre (post in ground) or planche debout (upright planks). The easiest of the two, poteaux en terre, was to cut logs, strip off the bark, and place it in a hole in the ground. The gaps between the logs would be filled with a mud and straw/moss mixture (bousillage). If they had the time and manpower, they might cut planks from the logs and place the planks vertically in the ground (planche debout) to make the walls (again, filling the gaps with bousillage). Roofs were covered with shingles or wood. These homes were built directly on the ground.
The Acadians soon learned that to build a wooden home on the ground was not the way to go. The occasional flooding and insect damage was terrible to these kinds of homes. Upon arriving in Louisiana, they noted that Creole homes were often built off the ground. This kept the home from water & insects and helped provide better ventilation. The 3rd generation Acadian home (1790-1850) was built on pillars of wood or brick. It was small, averaging about fifteen by twenty-five feet in size. Many had galleries in front. The chimney – made of bousillage at first, later of brick – was on one end of a one-room home. Two-room homes often had the chimney in-between the rooms.
The 4th generation Acadian home (1790-1920) was often larger that previous versions. By the mid-1800s, it was the common type of Acadian house. It has a gallery (porche on the front (and sometimes the back). This served two purposes. It gave them a place to sit to cool off and to socialize. It also allowed for a taller roof to provide room for storage and sleeping quarters. There were stairs to the atttic, usually located on the inside of homes in east Acadiana and outside the homes in west Acadiana. The upstairs sleeping area for the boys was called the garçonniere. The roof was covered with wood shingles at the beginning of this time period, but these were often replaced by corrugated tin roofing later in the 1800s. As the family grew, a separate but connected building was often built to the rear for kitchenspace or a bedroom. The windows had no glass, but were covered by wooden shutters. Some had two rooms side-by-side, with a front door opening up to each. One room was the common family room and kitchen, while the other room was a bedroom for the parents and daughters. As some Acadian families grew in size and wealth, larger homes with multiple rooms would be built.
As the 20th century progressed, most Cajuns began occupying contemporary housing styles, though some still have similar features to the old Acadian homes. Though there are a few 18th century Acadian homes scattered around south Louisiana, they are disappearing. This video of still pics represents only a portion of the snapshots I have collected of old Cajun homes. If you have any old pics your are willing to share with me, please email them to richarddeshotels@gmail.com.
