Getting an accordion to start learning some Cajun songs.

I’m a long time fan of Cajun music and have travelled to Louisiana to sit in on a Cajun jam on dobro. But I’ve always wanted to play some the songs on the accordion. There are not many choices for 1 row accordions here in Toronto, but a nearby store has a Hohner HA-112 in C in good condition and I think I’ll buy it.

Any advice on an instructional book or DVD would be much appreciated!

I’ve been reading many threads on this site. Great resource!

Thanks!
