Some pretty darn good pickin' here..I don't understand french, but they are good singers and players...These are just short clips,,and I would have liked to heard more of the songs...The bass is quite loud too, which I don't care for,,so watch your volume...Carson

Quebec is a hotbed of great pickers and has been for decades!

Andy, I think the steel player is from Quebec,,but the rest of the boys are from New Brunswick.. I have played with the fiddle player before,,we both have played on the same recordings as well..His name is Ray Legere,,great player...Regards,,,Carson

New Brunswick is so French, it may as well be part of Quebec.

Jean Guy seems to be enjoying himself; he's fun to watch.

Interesting stuff and maybe something of a tone study for those so inclined. The wood necked guitar, the black Sho-Bud, seems to exhibit a huskiness, a fullness of (mid-range?) body to its sound that is appealing to me.

He is a great player and has a real passion for steel guitar by the way he plays. Fab tone.
