What can anyone say
about Rod Bernard that hasn't already been said over and over again. Rod's
ultra unique "Louisiana" style has earned him about every reward that one
man can earn. From a very early age, it was evident that Rod Bernard
was the ultimate south Louisiana voice. His first recording of "This
Should Go On Forever" was the first "Swamp Pop" million seller. Before
the age of 20, Rod was touring the USA and even appeared on the Dick Clark
"Bandstand" Show. Rod's band, "The Twisters" was one of the hottest
rock 'n roll groups of the late fifties and early sixties. Rod was
fortunate to record an album with the great King of Zydeco, "Clifton Cheniere"
before his untimely death. If there is a King of Swamp Pop music,
it would have to be this man. Rod has done more for south Louisiana
music than anyone that this writer can think of. His recordings are
all classics and belong in every collector's home.
