5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful playing, intriguing songs, January 7, 2002
By 
Kathleen McFadden (Boone, NC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1957 -- Solo Cajun Guitar (Audio CD)
David Doucet's guitar playing is reason enough to buy this CD, but he gives you a double bonus with the songs he selected for this release -- just the right mix between lilting tunes and haunting ballads. You don't have to be a Cajun music lover to appreciate them -- although they are wonderfully representative of the richness of Cajun culture -- but simply anyone who appreciates the magic of a beautifully played guitar. Bravo, David! Please give us another solo guitar collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cajun Guitar Shines in the Spotlight, April 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: 1957 -- Solo Cajun Guitar (Audio CD)
For more 20 years, David Doucet has been an excellent ensemble player with America's foremost Cajun band, BeauSoleil. As a solo performer, he blends his skill in both flatpicking and fingerstyle guitar to create a gumbo of traditional masterpieces. Doucet has an understanding of Cajun and Creole culture that contributes largely to his choice of technique. His vocal delivery on many of the cuts enhances the relaxed feel of this enjoyable, inviting CD. Liner notes include comments as to the history of many of the pieces, as well as special tunings.

5.0 out of 5 stars About best guitar playing and sound I've ever heard, August 14, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: 1957 -- Solo Cajun Guitar (Audio CD)
I bought this CD at the 2001 National Folk Festival in East Lansing, Michigan, after hearing David Doucet play. The sound is fantastic as is his playing of these great melodies. He sings French on some cuts and I think his voice, though good, is not 5-star. However, he is a master of the guitar and I give this CD 5 stars for the amazing fingering and the superb recording clarity. I hope he comes back to the Great Lakes Folk Festival sometime soon.
