"Mamzelle Zizi" has been on my mind a lot today. The Creole folk songs of Louisiana are quite beautiful and full of so much history. Orchestre Bourbon has recorded a more "authentic" version of the song lacking jazz touches while Paul Cargnello adds rock elements. Just for fun, here's a more formal version of the piece in concert style. Gottschalk's "La Savane" is also based on this tune.
