Cajun country -- the prairie areas of southwestern Louisiana and the gulf marsh areas are and have been cattle country . Doug Kershaw is the singer not Buckwheat Zydeco.
just one problem... anyone know what it is???? that's NOT buckwheat singing. it's doug kershaw!!!! don't believe me?? get your hands on the "alligator stomp" cd's. this cut is in one of them. i don't exactly remember which one, but this is on there with doug kershaw's name next to it.
This is not Buckwheat, nor is it Jo-El Sonnier. It's Zachary Richard, and it's off his CD "Snake Bite". And on another note, Hank Williams is usualy credited with writing this song. He actually only put English lyrics to it. This is in fact a traditional Cajun tune,with original Cajun French lyrics.
@MrAccordionguy Jambalaya is definitely NOT in "Snake Bite"... at least not in the version sold through Amazon. And the voice of the two artists are very different. Are you sure??
@Sakamachi25 but what you dont understand is that Le Vacher Creole ran cows through that area to texas. There are plains among the bayous and lakes. mon papa et mon taton's are horse trainers and cattlemen. Once when i was about 10 years old we ran cattle from Vinton, La to Orange for a dude who was too scared to come in La to get them because a cajun girl he fucked over was going to have her brothers kill him if he came back into Louisiana. So he got our crazy creole asses to run'em.
Love this sound!

Excellent video! I sing Jambalaya on a banjo and this video makes me want to relearn French and eventually sing the song in French!

It is a great song, but the song is by the cajun artist by the name of Jo-El Sonnier, and the song is called "Jambalaya"
