Down Home Cajun Music - Rayne Bo Ramblers 1946 RCA Victor Session

Down Home Cajun Music - Rayne Bo Ramblers 1946 RCA Victor SessionAt this point, Happy and the Rayne Bo Ramblers had stayed busy recording since 1935. In 1946, Happy and the band recorded their last recordings for a major label when they recorded this session for RCA Victor. 1946 seemed to be the end of an era and beginning of a new one. This session on Victor was one of the last Cajun string band recordings by a major record label.  Not long afterwards, RCA Victor would abandon all things related to Cajun music, probably due to lack of sales nation wide. Independent labels were taking off and Happy would have to look at other outlets, which he did, with J.D. Miller's new independent label called "Fais Do Do" records. But this session has many great moments to enjoy, from "La Valse de Bosco" to the early rockabilly of "Cajun Boogie".Le Neuvo Te Maurice (Victor 2035)Les Veuve A Kita La Coulee (Victor 2035)Cajun Jitterbug (Victor 2321)Sweet Southern Azelea ( Victor 2321)Coosh Mal (Victor 2034)Le Valse De Bosco (Victor 2034)Cajun Boogie (Victor 2200)The Widows Lament (Victor 2200)*All selections from the original 78 rpm records.
