This is the ultimate zydeco album and with good reason. It's loaded with non-stop party music that's quick to capture the spirit of the genre (and its geographical importance) with incredible power, passion and soul. The  album initially earned top reviews from the likes of Rolling Stone and  became an essential title. The ensemble performance is superb: Paul  Sngal's guitar, Cleveland Chenier's rub-board, John Hart's tenor sax, Joe  Brouchet's bass and Robert St. Julian's drums all assist and add weight to  Le Roi's accordion work. All these cuts are downright classic, too! Check  out "Allons A Grand Coteau", "Quelque Chose Sur Mon  Ide" or "Ma Mama Ma Dit". It's guaranteed to cure your  blues and get you snappin' in no time flat. Remarkably, this music has aged  so little since it first appeared on (originally) LP and on CD. It's  immediacy is stunning, its performances sharp and the production still  solid (the album was originally recorded in 1975). It's why Clifton Chenier  (and it's pronouced Shay-nee-ay) ended up being crowned the King... Want  only 1 zydeco album? Get this. But, believe me, you'll want more and more  and more once you listen to this great disc!
