Really don't know a whole lot of cajun myself (yet), but would recommend the Rounder Records cajun anthology on iTunes, along with stuff by the Balfa Brothers and Balfa Toujours. The Balfa Brothers are pretty close to the "standard", if there is such a thing in cajun music. If you hunt around online, there may be some free stuff out there to download, although I haven't looked. (Boring aside - a couple of the fiddlers I play with are into cajun music so I am trying to learn proper guitar backup.) Only stretch I could figure for Riv connection is Bob Dylan has written and played a few cajun type tunes and Grant likes Dylan<g>. Have fun learning about the music! Eric Platt St. Paul, MN
