Featuring The Creole Zydeco Farmers, Keith Frank & The Soileu Zydeco Band, Rosie Ledet, Beau Jocque, Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas, Boozoo Chavis, Queen Ida & Her Zydeco Band, Clifton Chenier, Buckwheat Zydeco, Geno Delafose and Chris Ardoin & Double Clutchin'. Review: All Fine Cuts For Adventurous Music Lovers - The CD wallet cover invites: "Travel with us to Southwest Louisiana for an unforgettable musical adventure"... and that is just what the CD provides. I love the energy and sincerity of lyrics and performance found in top-level Zydeco music. The people at Putumayo have collected eleven signature performances by different Zydeco stars. Each cut is accompanied by a useful photograph of the artist, a brief overview of their work, including their place in Zydeco musical culture. Top stars for this information--a guide to our Louisiana tour. Collectors or just curious folk will appreciate having access to this learning. Most of us will just listen to the music. Some of us will already have a cut or two from here on first release albums by these musicians. One caveat: this is not the 'bush' Zydeco as rendered by semi-professional local bands; these are the 'giants' of the business and their work features polished musicianship and wider musical knowledge. I really like Buckwheat Zydeco. Putumayo offers 'I'm On A Wonder', a bluesy Zydeco with a powerful Buckwheat vocal. Boozoo Chavez and the Magic Sounds offer the amusing but pointed 'Lula, Lula Don't You Go To Bingo." In other words, each cut here is a gem and yet there is so much variety that the whole CD does not ever begin to sound alike. Absent here are bands like the Balfa Brothers but 'outsiders' will be introduced to The Creole Zydeco Farmers, Keith Frank and the Soileau Zydeco Band (Ca Fa, a great vocal and accordion number), Rosie Ledet (a gutsy bluesy "You're No Good For Me"); Beau Jocque and the Zydeco High Rollers ('What You Gonna Do'--showing his vocal prowess.) Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas offer 'I'm In Love', just one of their well-known numbers. Gene Delafose and French Rockin Boogie offer a swinging 'Bye Bye Mon Neg', a tradition-steeped Creole Zydeco. The tracks conclude with Chris Ardoin and his reggae influenced 'Stay In Or Stay Out.' There is not a single lame selection on this disc and I believe it will please a very wide audience of music lovers who are seeking adventure. Please note that my version of this CD did not include two cuts listed by the publisher: No. 6--Burning Flames Special and No. 12--'Hoochie Coochie' by Joe KK and Zydeco Force. I would have liked to listen to them, too but what is there is all worth five stars. Review: Awesome for people like me who know nothing about Zydeco - I wasn't exposed to much music as a kid and so I am sadly lacking in appreciation for many kinds of music. I don't want my kids to be the same way, especially since my oldest seems to have an affinity for music. In my quest to expose them to as many different types of music as early as possible, I scoured desertcart for the highest rated CDs. I came across this one and bought it because everyone absolutely raved about it. I don't know that I had ever heard a Zydeco song before I purchased this CD. However, it is now one of my favorites. I don't know any of the artists and I can't comment on that aspect of it. However, I can tell you that every time this CD is on, my toes start tapping. There isn't a song on it that I don't enjoy. Both of my kids start boogieing around the house and my 2-year-old picks up his instruments and tries to play along. It's great fun and given a choice of different CDs to listen to, my kids almost always choose this one over more "kid-friendly" ones. I highly recommend this CD to anyone who is interested in hearing some Zydeco but doesn't know enough about it to know what they want. The money I spent on this CD is the best investment I have made in music in a long time. ## Features - Shrink-wrapped ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00003OP0X | | Best Sellers Rank | #86,112 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #59 in Cajun & Zydeco Blues #36,157 in Pop (CDs & Vinyl) | | Compatible Phone Models | samsung galaxy s4, samsung i9500, samsung i9502, samsung i9505 | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (117) | | Date First Available | February 20, 2007 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 3.2 ounces | | Item model number | 1851850 | | Product Dimensions | 5.73 x 0.39 x 5.04 inches | | Size | 1 EA | ## Images ![Zydeco - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81daZm5Oo0L.jpg) ![Zydeco - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71X5oyi9MML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All Fine Cuts For Adventurous Music Lovers *by J***H on March 31, 2016* The CD wallet cover invites: "Travel with us to Southwest Louisiana for an unforgettable musical adventure"... and that is just what the CD provides.
