La Roulante


A Jean Blanchard tune, this one also goes by the name, "The LNB Polka." Blanchard, who I've written about briefly, is one of those credited with reviving rural French folk music in the early '70s. I recorded this video as part of Melodeon.net's Tune of the Month festivities. Even though it's called "The LNB Polka," there are some who say it is not, in fact, a polka, but a scottish. Having not heard Blanchard's version I played it the way it made sense to me. Enjoy.
