It reminds me so much of a weekend I spent on a houseboat in the Atchafalaya basin. One of the best and most memorable weekends of my life. Born and raised in Acadiana, that weekend cemented my roots.
This is the most heartfelt tribute I've ever heard. Mr Sonier, thank you. I can't articulate, how much gratitude I have for you, your music, and your music and memory.
Jo-El, EPIC thank you for making this beautiful heart tugging song. I grew up listening to this as a kid in the late 80's. My dad would blast the vinyl on his massive wooden Stereo which I still have. Decades later I bought the CD and the clarity was just unbelievable.
Damn, Jo-el. Thank you. That is one of the most sweetly sad songs I know, and I loved hearing you do it solo. Wonderful. Stay healthy, friend, your music has always meant much to me.
Whenever I get sad and depressed you never fail to cheer me up with your wonderful music. Thank you. With this pandemic going on just about a year now I really need you. Bless you Jo-el.
The NATION needs to sing this song but with a slight alteration to the lyrics: "Come on SAM...." PS I hope Mr Diffie was at least propped up next to that jukebox he was once singing about.😞
I sure miss the phone calls Jo-EL. I know you and all your friends are making music in heaven. What an angelic sound it must be!!!

The best! Don't get better than the real at home stuff...
We will dearly miss you Jo El
Jo El you are a legend....radio stations should be held criminally for not recognizing talent these days....thank you for the soul Jo.
Nice, thanx!
As a soldier stationed overseas in the 80s and 90s ,your music made me feel like I never left home in south Louisiana.
Thank you for the great music.
