1. New Bon Ton Roulay
2. Bon Ton Roulay




Two all-time classic, seminal Rumba-laden R&B sides backed together for the first time.
Texan born guitarist and vocalist Clarence Garlow first cut 'Bon Ton Roula' in 1950 for local label Macy's. A unique piece of music laced with Cajun slang and set to a heavily played, clattering Rumba drum track. The song became a regional hit and perhaps Garlow's signature piece. Originally a 78 only release, this appears on 45 for the first time.
