Remebering this month - December - The one and only Clifton Chenier

Born: June 25, 1925, in Opelousas, LA

Died: December 12, 1987, in Lafayette, LA.

Not enough can be said about the importance of Clifton Chenier in Zydeco music. 

Although he began his career in the mid-1940's, his sound can still be heard today.

His music is loved and imitated around the world.

You are truly missed.  RIP.

Here is a video of Clifton from YouTube from the San Francisco Blues Festival 1983
