		The Cajun sounds are a blend of German, Spanish, Scottish, Irish, Anglo-American, Afro-Caribbean and American Indian influences with a base of western French and French Acadian folk tradition.
		Long before Rounder, Arhoolie and other record companies began to take Cajun (and, later, Zydeco) into the mainstream, the Balfa Brothers recorded these two seminal albums (one in the '60s and one in the '70s) that are to Cajun music what, say, Hank Williams is to country music.
		Cajun music is influenced by the music of the German, Spanish, Scots, Irish, Anglo-American, African and Native American musical traditions, which have assimilated onto a base of French traditional music.

	Blue Collar Bayou — www.greenwood.com
		A substantial minority of Cajuns have risen out of the blue collar niche and into the middle class, creating more complicated problems of adjustment, role redefinition, and the changing nature of relationships with friends and family who remain part of the working class.
		The authors detail and describe the way the working class Cajun majority and the white collar Cajun minority draw on images and ideas from a reconstructed past to make sense of their present conditions and changes in their community.
		This comprehensive structural analysis of Cajun ethnicity suggests a new emphasis on structural conditions in understanding ethnic phenomena and introduces the concept of an "economy of ethnicity."

		The university's sports facilities, including Cajun Field and the Cajun Dome, were also baptized with the name.
		All of this self-consciousness once prompted musician, instrument maker, and local sage Marc Savoy to answer a reporter's question, "Are you sorry the Cajuns have been discovered?" with "I'm sorrier the Cajuns have discovered themselves." Beyond Savoy's quip, this frantic self-identification may indeed be symptomatic of a fear of drowning in the American mainstream.
		It was not until recently, once Jim Crow was dismantled to the point that no one really noticed anymore from what water fountain a person drinks, that the fl Creoles began to feel that they could afford the luxury of exploring and enhancing the French and Creole sides of their heritage.

	The Bayou Bandits ~ Sounds of Louisiana ~ A Brief History of Cajun / Zydeco / Creole Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		As Savoy explains in her book, Cajun Music: A Reflection of a People, the accordion was brought to Louisiana in the late 19th century by German immigrants, but, because the accordions were tuned in keys that did not match the "open string" tuning of the fiddlers, it was not incorporated into Cajun music.
		At the same time that the Cajuns was being transformed by new influences, the African American descendants of slaves who had been brought by force to America were developing their own music, and the music of the two cultures influenced one another.
		And, just as with Cajun music, since the music of the 19th century was not recorded and not transcribed in writing, the origins of what has come to be called Creole music will always remain cloudy.
