3	The Best of Doug Kershaw (1989) more music like this by Doug Kershaw Fiddle player extraordinaire Doug Kershaw is featured on ten Cajun-drenched country and rockabilly tunes recorded in the '70s for Warner Bros..

4	Choo Choo Boogaloo (1994) more music like this by Buckwheat Zydeco Take a tour through Creole country aboard the Choo Choo Boogaloo.

5	Bayou Blues (1970) more music like this by Clifton Chenier Bayou Blues compiles a selection of 12 tracks Clifton Chenier cut for Specialty Records in 1955, including the original versions of "Boppin' the Rock," "Eh, Petite Fille," "I'm On My Way" and "Zodico Stomp." It may not be a definitive retrospective, but it's an entertaining and necessary sampler of Chenier at the beginning of his career. Thom ... see all copies from $2.74! new only from $10.29!
6	If Dreams Come True (2007) more music like this by Ann Savoy Ann Savoy has long been a Francophile. A French major in college, she later became a major player in the Cajun music scene through her work in the Savoy-Doucet Cajun Band and the Magnolia Sisters. More recently, she has become more widely known as the organizer of two well-received Cajun-based compilations, Evangeline Made and Creole Bred, as well ... see all copies from $5.82! new only from $10.99!
7	Evangeline Made: A Tribute to Cajun Music (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Getting together a bunch of well-known musicians known for rock, folk, and country rather than straight ethnic music to perform on a compilation tribute album to a strand of ethnic music is usually a bad idea. Evangeline Made, refreshingly, turns out to have been a good idea. That's probably due at least in part to it being produced by a respected ... see all copies from $3.73! new only from $13.99!

10	Where There's Smoke There's Fire (1990) more music like this by Buckwheat Zydeco A great album of zydeco party anthems (and others) from Buckwheat Zydeco, the heir apparent in zydeco after the death of Clifton Chenier. This album features a number of Buckwheat's (Stanley Dural's) compositions, along with covers of a few standards from other genres, most notably "Route 66," Hank Williams' "Hey Good Lookin," and the Stones' ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.04!
11 view cover	Made in the Shade (2007) more music like this by Red Stick Ramblers Louisiana's Red Stick Ramblers, led by the twin fiddle attack of Kevin Wimmer and Linzay Young, are a versatile little modern string band as likely to burst into some Hot Club jazz as they are to update some classic Cajun 2-step into a chooglin' bit of swamp blues. On Made in the Shade, their fourth album and first for Sugar Hill Records, they do ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $15.65!
12	Legendary Hits (2007) more music like this by Eddy Raven see all copies from $3.52! new only from $5.66!
13 view cover	The Best of Louisiana Music [Rounder] (1993) more music like this by Various Artists Louisiana music has been one of Rounder's strong points in the 1980s and 1990s -- not only zydeco and Cajun music, but also soul, blues, jazz, and rock. In 1993, the Boston-area label opened its own vaults to assemble The Best of Louisiana Music, which isn't essential, but is enjoyable on the whole. Nathan & the Zydeco Cha Chas' "Your Mama Don't ... see all copies from $3.32! new only from $6.87!

A series called Ultimate Collection consisted of full-price, single-disc retrospectives that often included material licensed from other ... see all copies from $5.40! new only from $8.66!
15 view cover	The Best of Flaco Jimenez [Arhoolie] (1999) more music like this by Flaco Jiménez Drawn from his Arhoolie recordings (there is also a live recording from the soundtrack of the Chulas Fronteras documentary), this is a satisfactory 16-track compilation with tracks spanning the '50s to the '80s, although, unfortunately, exact dates are not given in the liner notes. The different sources for the material allow for a greater range ... see all copies from $11.80! new only from $14.56!
16 view cover	The Best of Jazz Fest: Live From New Orleans (1995) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.69! new only from $14.47!
17 view cover	Alligator Stomp, Vol. 1 (1990) more music like this by Various Artists Alligator Stomp is a stellar collection of zydeco, featuring stars and lesser-known musicians. The disc is filled with great, rollicking music -- there simply isn't a weak moment on the disc, and it provides an excellent introduction to one of America's most distinctive musics. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.90! new only from $16.85!
18 view cover	Zydeco Essentials (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The fittingly named Zydeco Essentials provides a good starting point for novices to this musical style, which fuses elements of creole -- such as the accordion, harmonica and fiddle -- with urban R&B. The collection includes songs from some of the most prominent zydeco artists, including Buckwheat Zydeco, Clifton Chenier, Zachary Richard, Beau ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.98!
19 view cover	Higher Ground Hurricane Benefit Relief Concert (2005) more music like this by Various Artists When Hurricane Katrina made landfall at New Orleans on August 29, 2005, and the levees failed, devastating the city, the world's complete attention was suddenly focused in on the cradle of jazz, and several benefit relief concerts were quickly organized, including the concert that is presented here, held September 17, 2005, at P. Rose Hall in New ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.51!

21 view cover	Our New Orleans: A Benefit Album for the Gulf Coast (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Several benefit albums have been released in the wake of Hurricane Katrina's landfall in New Orleans on August 29, 2005, and most -- if not all -- of them have been fine and well-intentioned affairs, full of the spirited and lively music that has long made the Crescent City special. Each of these collections has merit, but if you can only afford ... see all copies from $4.50! new only from $16.52!
22 view cover	Blues de Musicien (2007) more music like this by Pine Leaf Boys The Pine Leaf Boys may be young, and their sound may be fresh and energetic, but there's nothing rebellious or even particularly adventurous about their style -- they're not blending Cajun 2-steps with techno beats or writing Creole versions of Christina Aguilera songs or anything like that. All they're doing is playing classic Creole music in a ... see all copies from $12.41! new only from $14.78!
23 view cover	Cajun & Zydeco Classics (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Cajun & Zydeco Classics is an excellent budget-line sampler of some of the biggest names in contemporary cajun music, including Buckwheat Zydeco, Rockin' Sidney, Boozoo Chavis, Beausoleil, and Queen Ida. Although the disc is brief, there are no weak tracks on the compilation and it offers a terrific introduction to the musical genre. Stephen ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $5.37!
24 view cover	Cajun Heat Zydeco Beat (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Cajun Heat, Zydeco Beat is an entertaining sampler which boasts a pretty strong selection of artists, including Buckwheat Zydeco, Nathan & the Zydeco Cha Chas, Bruce Daigrepont, Bois Sec Ardoin with Balfa Toujours, Steve Riley & the Mamou Playboys, Jo-El Sonnier, Beau Jocque & the Zydeco Hi-Rollers, Geno Delafose & French Rockin' Boogie, Coteau, ... see all copies from $5.34! new only from $8.08!
25 view cover	60 Minutes with the King of Zydeco (1988) more music like this by Clifton Chenier This album is Arhoolie's attempt to create a posthumous greatest hits compilation for the king of zydeco, presenting the 15 best-sellers from their catalog. As such, all of the best songs from Chenier's days are available together here, ranging from slower blues to high speed party-based zydeco. Any fan of Chenier (or zydeco in general) should ... see all copies from $12.41! new only from $14.00!
