Beau Jocque (born Andrus Espre; November 1, 1953 – September 10, 1999) was a Louisiana French Creole zydeco musician and songwriter active in the 1990s. Beau Jocque is known for his gruff vocals, his fusion of many musical styles into zydeco, and above all, for the powerful energy of his rhythm and sound. Backed by the Hi-Rollers, he became one of the top dance-hall acts of his musical decade. He wrote, recorded and performed many songs in both Louisiana French and Louisiana Creole languages, as well as in English, primarily on the Rounder Records label.

  • ボー・ジョック (Beau Jocque, 1953年11月1日 - 1999年9月10日) は、米国ルイジアナ州を拠点に活動したザディコのアコーディオン奏者、シンガー。本名は、アンドラス・エスプレ。芸名は、ケイジャン・フレンチで「とても大きな男」という意味である。彼は、身長198cm、体重120kgという巨漢であった。小さい頃に体格の大きさから、そのあだながついたという。 1990年代のザディコ界に彗星のごとく登場し、その巨漢から繰り出す存在感と、ロックやソウルを取り入れた新鮮なサウンドからクリフトン・シェニエ、ブーズー・チェイヴィスに次ぐキング・オブ・ザディコの登場と話題になるも、1999年心臓発作により急逝した。彼のあとに登場した多くの若手ザディコ・プレイヤーたちとブーズーらトラディショナルなプレイヤーたちとの橋渡し的な存在としても、その存在はザディコの歴史に大きく刻まれている。 (ja)
