Great stuff (and fast). Traveling in Louisana in 1996, I stopped in a little music store. After chatting with the elderly proprietor, he gifted me with promo photos of Jo-el, other Cajun and Creole musicians (and a young Dolly Parton) He was Eddie Shuler of Goldband Records who had recorded each of them. Alas, I've since given them all away, years ago. C'est la vie. ;) I found the Cajun people to be very hospitable, I had some nice jams down there. Maybe go again one of these days.
Marc's accordions are excellent, and almost a spitting image of Juniors accordions. Mark Savoy taught Junior Martin how to make a quality instrument, and Jr. gives Mark all the credit for that. I have played and own both. Tone wise and response are almost identical. The inlay work on both are really nice, but I prefer Juniors, and I also prefer Juniors tuning, however they both use the same Italian reeds, and could be tuned the same. I prefer Juniors accordions, but thats just a personal thing.
Virtuoso playing, at a speed only few can handle. Although I must say, I think the feel of the song would be more accessible to a slower tempo. Just my opinion.

Poor translation entirely misses the gender distinction.
