Clifton Chenier was the undisputed King of Zydeco, and the man who literally invented the genre. He took Louisiana's rural Creole music from the house dances to concert halls around the world. He was not only the King, but the father of zydeco. This CD features his first recordings for Arhoolie, recorded at historic Gold Star Studios in Houston, Texas.
