As a young, aspiring accordion player who grew up with a family who played, I can't thank you enough for providing this important piece of our culture for us to enjoy. The Baritone himself in all his glory. Thank you, T.

He has some of the best recordings in Cajun music. His vocals are superb. I played fiddle with him for 3 years in the 90’s and he was fun to play music behind.

Thanks, I appreciate it. Cajun music was my first love and there’s a lot of music I love but Cajun hits different. Belton is one of the best to ever do it.

Wow, what a performance, thanks for uploading. Cajun music done right will always hit me right in the heart. Belton is very underrated in an underrated genre !

I agree! I’m working on a traditional style Cajun record as we speak. Belton was one of the best to ever do it and I was honored to have played with his group for 3 years. He was an amazing talent and left a huge music legacy.
