Louisiana Folk Masters: Varise Conner CD

Varise Conner (1906-1994) has been called the “greatest unrecorded Cajun musician.” With this ground-breaking 72-minute collection of previously unavailable songs and stories we now have an opportunity to hear masterful renditions of waltzes, two-steps, blues, a mazurka, a polka and even “Lake Arthur Stomp” as performed by its originator in his own home. The source recordings for this project were made between 1975 and 1977.
