Since Oliver is still in the oothoos, eh, I recorded a Cajun Sampler for Oliver but need a reading on Fair Use - Educational Purposes, before posting the link. Here's US Copyright Law on Fair Use, likely different in Canada. What do you friends think? Is it okay to post a song for Educational Purposes? (Educating Oliver) How about a 30 second extract? http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/fair-use-rule-copyright-material-30100.htmlNoticed, in recording this Cajun Sampler, two other prominent instruments in Cajun Music, an upright bass (possibly a homemade washtub bass) and a PSG being plucked with 16th notes. This is getting complicated. Leave it to me to complicate stuff. Summary: It's definitely Fun music that Peter would approve. Picture a bunch of French-Canadians after blowing the foam off of a few "Blue" and eating their fill of Bayou Shrimp (Crawdads), Bubba!A slow Cajun Waltz is an absolutely beautiful thing by anyone's reckoning, says me wee Irish self. "Lover's Waltz" in this playlist is almost exactly what I want/need, Oliver, please?

About the only thing that I could add to Don's posting would be a washboard. BIAB 2015 has two (2) Zydeco styles, but no RT's to go with them. Think 165 bpm.

+1 on washboard, Ray.
I was thinking more in terms of melody instruments but rhythm instruments are welcome too.
