Notes

Not surprisingly, since the earliest days of South Louisiana Swamp Pop (the mid to late ’50s), sweethearts, ex-sweethearts, best friend’s sweethearts, the girl in the next row in algebra class, the prettiest girl at the fais-do-do, and the youngest daughter of Rufus Thibodeaux, have been inspirations for much of the genre’s best known songs. Therefore, it makes perfect sense that Jin Records (the original Swamp Pop label and the only one named after the founder’s lifelong sweetheart) pay tribute to the fairer sex by assembling songs of tribute de femme! ~Jeff Hannusch
