Objet: Big Mamou - fast Cajun waltz
Date : samedi 26 août 2000 18:52

This is a Cajun song recorded by various artists, sometimes done as a polka,
sometimes as a waltz.  The best version, IMHO, is a fast waltz done by Hank
Williams, Jr. (along with Jimmy C. Newman on vocals and Jo-El Sonnier on
accordion) on his "Lone Wolf" album and box set.  It's also one helluva good
song to waltz to.....

I'm not sure how correct the following tab is - I just pieced it together by
ear.  Comments and corrections are welcome.

That's the basics of it, listen to the song to get the sound of it.
