Re: Koady Chaisson, RIP
Thanks for sharing that sad news, Bill. To others, if you get a chance to hear any musician named "Chaisson" or "Arsenault" from PEI, don't pass up the opportunity. Most of them are fiddlers, but they're a versatile bunch of musicians.
Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
