- Here's a really fun tune from the great New Brunswick Acadian fiddler Gerry Robichaud: "Reel de Bouctouche". The name's from a nearby village, but this tune was popular in the Saint-Paul area of New Brunswick just a bit North of Moncton. It's a blast to play, so try it out if you're looking for a new tune. My dad, Louis Léger, himself from Moncton, joins me on accordion for this one! This tune is on Gerry Robichaud's seminal Acadian fiddle album on Rounder Records, The Slippery Stick. It's out of print, but you can find copies around. It's an amazing recordings!

An excellent tune and a great job of playing it by both!
I wonder if Gerry played it like that. You seem to start with the B part :) Maybe with time, fiddlers realized that it was better to start with the other part. Cheers !
Yeah Gerry played it with the high part as the A part! I like your version too!
@@devonleger7469 I was sure Gerry played it like that because you're very faithful to the version you hear. Around here we play the low part first. There was a little song going on with that reel and the air was on the low part. Maybe that's why we play it like we do. Also, because we didn't know it's name, and because of the song, we were calling it: La reel du d'jäbe (diable).
@@bonenfant96 what’s the song that goes with it??
