Early Cajun Music: "Lulu's Back In Town" - Cleoma Breaux
Not only were the blues influential on Cajun music, even jazz played a part in early Cajun recording artists. In 1937, Cleoma Breaux Falcon covers this swingy tune called "Lulu's Back In Town" (#17030) for Decca in Dallas, TX. Recorded at the Adolphus Hotel, the recording consisted of Cleoma Falcon on vocals and guitar with Moise Morgan on violin.

Great stuff again. Who would have thought a song like this would pop up in the Cajun repertoire?
