The Return Of The Ragin' Cajun

Bad video, great cover of Richard Thompson's "Tear-Stained Letter." If you don't think anyone can rock an accordion, you haven't heard Jo-el Sonnier. He's got a sideman seriously rocking a guitar, as well.

You might have found this one already, but here are Thompson and Sonnier together:

I found it last year by accident. They both rip it up pretty good, too.

I saw that! It was nice seeing them together.

"Come on Joe" is still one of my fave albums. Talented fellow that Jo-el. He's got a tight band too.

I wouldn't have associated Judge Reinhold with Cajun. LOL.

Is that really that Judge guy? I just figured it was someone who happened to look like him.

Yeah, it's him. He's etched forever in my mind from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High." Unfortunately the etching is of him on a toilet masturbating to a Phoebe Cates fantasy.
What can ya do? They don't say "young and impressionable" for nothing.
