This is the heartfelt sound of the South -- the intersection of country, soul, rockabilly and R&B in the '50s, '60s and '70s; songs of drinkin', cheatin', and lovin' with Louisiana brass and Nashville strings.
The yearning, country-tinged feel of Cajun music and the blues-based, party-starting grooves of zydeco are at the core of Louisiana's musical tradition. These are the old-school artists who built the sound.
'80s movies had the best music. If you need songs for a motivational montage, a wild party, or romantic kiss, these songs provide the perfect soundtrack for an '80s nostalgia trip.
