WAYNE PERRY'S WALTZ IN 'A'. American, Waltz (3/4 time). A Major. AEae tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'CC'D. Jody Stecher explains that this Cajun-sounding waltz was played by Wayne Perry on a 1934 Library of Congress recording that is labelled "Cajun Waltz. An old-time Creole Blues." According to Stecher, some of Perry's recordings seem to have been mislabelled, as the "Ceole Blues" tune more accurately describes another of Perry's recordings that has the misfit title "Cajun Two-Step" [1]. It is not known if Perry was of Cajun extraction, but he played a wide range of tunes, including breakdowns such as "Sally Goodin" and "Cackling Hen," and French influenced tunes such as waltzes, mazurkas and blues. |f_source_for_notated_version=Wayne Perry (Indian Bayou, La.)
