REVIEW

“...I'll go so far as to say that I think it is pretty near brilliant. Doucet plays some wonderful solo fiddle and also - much to my surprise - some terrific accordion. If the purpose of his band Beausoleil is to present the music in a modern context, this solo set represents more of an attempt to get back into the heart of the traditionit works beautifully - like hearing vintage Cajun recordings in the best of modern sound.”
