| | Goldman Thibodeaux and Calvin Carrière |
 | | Sixty years later, Goldman Thibodeaux collaborated with Calvin Carrière to bring back the sorrowful, joyous, beautiful sounds of Creole music in their first and only CD together, Les misères dan le coeur, released in fall 2000 by Louisiana Radio Records. |
 | | Calvin Carrière was the son of the late Eraste "Dolon" Carrière, the accordion player who teamed with his brother, fiddler the late Bébé Carrière, in the original Lawtell Playboys. |
 | | The CD continues with Calvin's version of his uncle's "Blues à Bébé," "Valse des Mèches," "Petite ou Grosse," "Love Bridge Waltz," and the instrumental "Goldman Thibodeaux Special," and concludes with "Jongle à Moi." Most of the songs are familiar, but it's been a long time since anyone has performed them like this. |
