Album Review
>>
Recorded in one session without overdubs to give it a live feel, this is a foot-stomping lively set of Zydeco dance music. C.J. is the son of Clifton Chenier and carries on the accordion tradition of his dad, with energy and loads of red hot pepper sauce. There's rock, R&B and funk in the mix and some familiar tunes on the set list: "Baby please don't go," the blues standard "Trouble in mind," John Lee Hooker's "Dusty Road," and "We gotta have peace" by Curtis Mayfield, a storming conclusion to the set. The oddity is a Tom Waits song, "Clap Hands" which starts on thumb piano but is soon swept aside. Lively partying music which shows the good times are still rolling. 09/01/11
