    When Zydeco was made, the lord sent a angel down with a squeeze box and a rub board and said” Make the people happy! Make the people dance!”

      @@mavjimbo That's a German lie hash up by racist not wanting to give blacks credit for starting all music genres. The Germans, Polish stole what you call polka from blacks and called it Polka ( Polish ) as their own.
      Just like the Mexicans copied New Orleans Brass bands and called it BANDA as their own.
      Its nothing new, Europeans stole classical music from blacks and called it their own even to the whitewashing of cats like Mozart & Bethoven . Think I'm kidding ? Google it.
      In America blacks started rock & roll as a matter of fact EVERY form of music in America was started by blacks. Cumbias stolen from Cuba, I could go on & on.
      This is how you can tell if someone stole an idea from someone and claimed it as there own.....if that person doesn't come up with a better idea later or a different idea that was as great as the one they claim than the original idea was stolen. That's how you can tell.
      Have the Germans came up with a different genre of music that took the world by storm ? No.

      You can thank your ancestors as Britain won the war with France and established British North America.
      The French Canadiens ... living in Acadia (in what is now New Brunswick), we're given the choice of staying and become British subjects or move to French Louisiana.
      Acadian was eventually shortened to Cadian...then Cajun. Unfortunately for the relocated Acadians, France sold Louisiana to the fledgling United States of America.

      We used to least ways.
      Every weekend was family get togethers with the best food in the world (alot of folks say ) , and the family get togethers turned into parties. And everybody was welcome, it was good times back then. Before the govs ruined everything with their education, tek, enter net web , tell lie vision , and entertainment.

      I was watching a video of a guy in the UK driving his car to work and listening to some tunes (absolutely nothing else happened).
      I commented on one of the tunes and some guy replied 'That's Zydeco' and I thought 'No. That's Racey (as in the band)'.
      So I Googled Zydeco and ended up here.
      Then I saw your comment and thought it was a play on words (acadian/accordion?)
      I've only been out of bed an hour and I've already learnt 2 new things today (and stuffed my head full of decent tunes).

    Zydeco is pure talent. Sadly, such talent will never receive the honor, or recognition, it so rightly deserves. What you witness in this video is sheer happiness, and a love of life. The Acadians of Louisiana are a simple, loving, talented people who find joy in most everything. They would "give you the shirt of their back," or "their last dollar." They also will serve up the best damn food you will ever eat.

    omg, I'm only seconds into this video and hearing that accordion warm up a little I know it's gonna be fantastic... but during these moments of warm up made me think that there's nothing better in this world than hearing someone play an instrument they've mastered. Now, I have 4 minutes and 26 seconds left to enjoy.. play on!

    Chicago born and raised on big band and Rock & Roll. Been all over the US and enjoyed local music everywhere. every kind. Nothing makes me smile and be glad to be alive like this music. Think about it. In the hall with some lovely girl and trying to keep up and having the time of your life. I have been to New Orleans and the jazz is unbelievable but I couldn't find any Zydeco. Must not be for the tourists.

      Unfortunately, Jazz Fest, Inc. is more interested in big names, so the Louisiana artists have been pushed to the smaller stages or just don't play it anymore. Go west and slightly north from New Orleans to hear the real thing, both Cajun and Zydeco.

    What a great show. I was returning home to Phila after my son's college graduation in Pittsburgh. I "detoured" a bit to catch this top-of-the-form traditional zydeco band play this buttkicking set for the folks at the Institute for Musical Traditions on the far beltway outside Washington DC. These guys (dear friends,all) helped me celebrate my kid's milestone... and we ALL had a blast! Played their asses off! It was in a beautiful Episcopalian church on a lovely wooded little patch. Gorgeous setting for a gorgeous performance. Classie Ballou, Houserocker Dan and Uncle Jimmy Seraile

    🤯 so good!!! They're all up there LAYING IT DOWN for like 50 cute old couples. This touched my heart on so many levels. I want to start every morning with this song. Zydeco has made me dance from a young age. Completely involuntary dancing. Your feet to start tapping and your whole body starts moving its a beautiful feeling. If you didn't feel that right there, you might not have a soul...
