Louisiana Swamp Blues / Various

(2014/JSP) 102 tracks.
Music is in Louisiana is an important part of life. Often the family sitting together and making music together for themselves and their neighbors. This has a lot to do with the ancestors. The first settlers arrived in 1755 on Nova Scotia to Louisiana, were of French descent, and of course also brought their music history with the country. But on to the 20th century.

The first Cajun plates were taken in 1929, but things changed quickly - soon there was electrically amplified instruments and Zydeco mixed with Cajun, blues and R & B. For precisely this mixture Louisianna is known and it is this music is also on this excellent 4-CD compilation. (Compiled by Neil Slaven)
