Downeast Bob	Is Zydeco the same as Cajun? (40)	RE: Is Zydeco the same as Cajun?	18 Jul 00
A lot of the old time jazz musicians of New Orleans used to play a tune called "Les Haricots" (the beans) which was picked up and played by some of the black Louisiana French speaking musicians whose music overlapped with that of the white Cajuns. I've heard that quoted as the root of the term "Zydeco."
