A question for the Cajun music buffs:
Fairport Convention - "Si Tu Dois Partir"
It's a cover of Bob Dylan's "If You Gotta Go, Go Now", with the lyrics translated into French. The (English) band claimed they did this because the arrangement sounded Cajun to them.
My question: Does this really sound Cajun?
It's a great record, but it's never sounded remotely Cajun to me. Even in French. Of course my experience with Cajun music is limited, so I may be wrong...
