Very Best of Cajun Classics, and is drawn mainly from the two now-deleted volumes that were among our best sellers (in any genre) during the 1990s. Those releases hit the button just as Cajun music was enjoying a popularity in the UK that was akin to the calypso, trad jazz and R&B booms of years gone by.......Suddenly, young musicians were taking up the accordion and fiddle; new bands with cute Louisiana names were springing up; dance schools were adding the Cajun two-step and waltz to their curricula; the Cajun bookshelf started groaning; and Cajun CDs were selling like pop records. Best of all, authentic Cajun musicians started visiting the British shores, notably D L Menard, Eddie LeJeune, Balfa Toujours and Beausoleil.......
