Best 100 zydeco releases

Zydeco is a music genre that originated in southwest Louisiana, particularly among the Creole and African American communities. It is a blend of Cajun music, blues, and R&B, and is characterized by its use of the accordion and the washboard, as well as other instruments like the fiddle, guitar, and bass. The lyrics are usually sung in Creole French or English and often reflect the culture and daily life of the region's African American and Creole communities. Zydeco is known for its upbeat and danceable rhythms and has been popularized by artists like Clifton Chenier, Buckwheat Zydeco, and Boozoo Chavis.
