Our Take

Ah, the sweet sounds of the bayou! "Beginners Guide To Cajun" is a delightful compilation album that takes you on a raucous journey through the vibrant world of Cajun music. Featuring a diverse range of artists, from the legendary Clifton Chenier to the up-and-coming Feufollet, this album is a true celebration of Cajun culture.

The infectious accordion melodies and foot-stomping rhythms will have you on your feet from start to finish. Each track is a masterclass in storytelling, with lyrics that paint vivid portraits of life in the Louisiana swamps. Whether you're a seasoned Cajun connoisseur or a newcomer to the genre, there's something here for everyone to enjoy.

Standout tracks include the fiery "J'ai Ete Au Zydeco" by Geno Delafose and French Rockin' Boogie, which will transport you straight to a lively Louisiana dancehall. The haunting "Travailler c'est trop dur" by Zachary Richard is a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by the Cajun community. And of course, no Cajun album would be complete without a rendition of the classic "Jole Blon" by the one and only Doug Kershaw.

So grab a bottle of hot sauce, dust off your dancing shoes, and let "Beginners Guide To Cajun" whisk you away to the heart of Cajun country. This album is a true gem that deserves a spot in every music lover's collection.
