Review

An expanded disc version of Alan Lomax's Cajun & Creole Music, Vol. 2, this edition includes material recorded in the 1930s and '80s, preserving music from some of America's oldest and least-changed folk traditions, those of southern Louisiana. Unlike its predecessor, the second volume focuses on unaccompanied singers and solo instrumentalists. ~ Earl Simmons, All Music Guide
