- On
a search for recordings from an old Cajun singer, Gérard Dôle
encountered guitarist Richard Fontenont on a proverbial dark and stormy
night. Fontenont and his family took him in, told him stories, and
later, Dôle recorded the material for this album, which presents
Richard’s delightful fingerstyle guitar.
