An important book for anyone with an interest in life, American music, Southern culture, dancing, accordions, the recording industry, folklore, old dance clubs in the weeds, fortune tellers, hoodoos or shotguns. Annie ProulxTheres a musical kingdom in the American South thats not marked on any map. Stretching from the prairies of Louisiana to the oil towns of East Texas, it is ruled over accordionsqueezing, washboardwielding musicians such as Buckwheat Zydeco, Nathan Williams, Keith Frank, Terrance Simien, Rosie Ledet, and C. J. Chenier. Theirs is the kingdom of zydeco. With its AfricanCaribbean rhythms, CreoleFrenchEnglish lyrics, and lively dance styles, zydeco has spread from its origins in Louisiana across the nation, from Back Bay to the Bay Area. It has influenced the music of Eric Clapton and Paul Simon and been played at Carnegie Hall.In this remarkable and engrossing book, Michael Tisserand reveals why zydecos identifiable and unforgettable blend of blues and Cajun influences has made the dance music of Louisiana black Creoles so popular and widespread. Zydecos appeal runs deeper than the feelgood, getupanddance reaction it invariably elicits and is intertwined in the musics roots and rhythms, handed down from generation to generation. Here is the story of zydeco music. Tisserand goes on the zydeco trail to meet the major artists; he reconstructs the legends behind the musics beginnings, offering complete biographies of pioneers such as Amd Ardoin and Clifton Chenier; and he takes you into the dance halls and onto the front porches where zydeco was born and continues to thrive. More than a book on a musical style, The Kingdom of Zydeco is an exploration and a celebration of a distinctive American culture.
