This gem of a song penned by the great New Orleans songwriter and piano guru, Allen Toussaint, has always been a favorite of mine. It just moves me. Such an honor to have singer extraordinaire, Andrina Turenne, lend her stunning vocals to my Toussaint-inspired piano rendition for a soulful collaboration between dear friends.

With You In Mind - Andrina Turenne & Eric Adcock

In this episode of Pressed in America, we touched down in Lafayette and drove to festivals, bars, and basements to talk to the musicians who contribute to the unique musical landscape in Cajun country – from Toups and his Cajun compatriots, to the creole Zydeco bands that tour the prairies and swamps, to 20-something squeezebox masters living and recording in downtown lofts. What we found was a region caught between an impulse to innovate, and the need to protect the traditions that make them special.

I went to visit Mr Harry LaFleur about a week ago with Jo Vidrine and we recorded this song of his with him, La Vie Est Pas Donné. Mr. Harry's health isn't that great lately so I'm grateful to have shared this experience with him after sitting next to him at my dad's jam so many Saturday mornings. Photo by CajunZydecoPhotos
