REVIEW “The exuberant `Live At St. Mark's' is a live recording Chenier made in front of an audience of transplanted Creoles who'd moved to the Bay Area. The rumbling bass lines, barreling vocals, and seamless blend of blues, traditional tunes, his own works, and comedic elements expertly convey Chenier's special qualities, and the band includes his brother Cleveland on rubboard plus guitarist Felix Benit, who takes the spotlight during those rare moments when Chenier takes a back seat. Although he didn't get his just glory until late in his career, Chenier was a certified genius, with that rare combination of high caliber musicianship and unparalleled stage presence.”(Ron Wynn — Rock & Roll Disc) |
