REVIEWS

“If you missed this album the first time around, get it now, this is easily the King of Zydeco's single best record, a swampy rhythm and blues oriented set that finds Chenier accompanying himself on harmonica as well as accordion on some numbers. Tenor sax man John Hart never sounded better and the whole band hits a groove.”

(Macon Fry — Wavelength)

“This is probably the best Zydeco album of all time . . . This reissue represents an entire 1975 session (including a previously unreleased tune) with Chenier at the height of his powers working with his best band . . . Like the Muddy Water's 1954 group, Chenier's 1975 ensemble is one of the great bands in American history, and they rip through this set without taking prisoners.”

(Geoffrey Himes — Washington Post)
