Freddie North - Cuss Wind - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Soul singer Freddie North started his professional career in 1969 cutting sides for Sam Phillips’ Phillips International tag. After a spell cutting demos in Nashville for other artists, he teamed up with legendary producer Jerry Williams Jr. (aka Swamp Dogg) to cut an album. The first single, “She’s All I Got” entered the R&B chart in the summer of 1971 and stayed on the charts for 17 weeks, peaking at # 10. The subsequent album, titled “Friend,” would go on to be an underground hit, even entering the national R&B charts. Presented here is the original album, newly remastered.

Although characteristic of the state of Louisiana, Cajun music has it's roots in the French-speaking Acadian population of Canada. The lives of those French colonists were wracked by political discord, war, and for some families, deportation; after the Seven Years' War (1756-63) many sought refuge in Louisiana. On this recording, humorous ballads and lively reels, bolstered by accordion, fiddle, and guitar accompaniment, belie the harsh experiences of the Acadians. Album producer Lucie de Vienne describes how the superimposed elementary rhythms give these songs a InchjazzyInch atmosphere shared with other French-derived folk songs in the Caribbean. The liner notes include a history of the Cajun people, musical notations, and song lyrics in Cajun French and in English.
