This is a special-edition of the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast, in honor of the Celtic Invasion of New Orleans and featuring Cajun and Zydeco music from New Orleans and around the world. All of this music was from the original “MP3.com” website (before it was bought out by Virgin) and features artists that can still be found today (more or less). The links below reflect the most likely sources for this music today.
