Thread Name: Is Zydeco the same as Cajun?
Subject: RE: Is Zydeco the same as Cajun?
One thing I didn't find out in either of the fine references. How do you pronounce Zydeco. In particular, where is the accent. There is a group formed locally calling themselves "Psycho Zydeco". I haven't heard them name themselves; but people here seem to say zyDECo, whereas I would tend to say ZYdeco. Of course being French, maybe it is zydeCO. Help!
