Here's a really fun tune from the great New Brunswick Acadian fiddler Gerry Robichaud: "Reel de Bouctouche". The name's from a nearby village, but this tune was popular in the Saint-Paul area of New Brunswick just a bit North of Moncton. It's a blast to play, so try it out if you're looking for a new tune. My dad, Louis Léger, himself from Moncton, joins me on accordion for this one! This tune is on Gerry Robichaud's seminal Acadian fiddle album on Rounder Records, The Slippery Stick. It's out of print, but you can find copies around. It's an amazing recordings!
