Please Help. A friend of mine is interested in playing cajan accordian music. He is looking for the music & or lyrics to the following: Tasso/McGee's Reel by BeauSoleil, La Pointe-Aux Pins by Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys, and Laisser Faire by Bruce Diaqrepont. Also Jo-El Sonnier recorded Jambalaya, is that the same tune as by Hank Williams? This is way out of my musical realm (Early and Celtic music)but thought if anyone would know some thing about cajan music ....well it just had to be Mudcatter. Thanks. Sharon
