Listening to this CD will remind you just how great Beau Jocque was. All Beau Jocque fans have their favorite songs and most are on this CD. The last 2 songs on the CD are never released live versions of "Just One Kiss" and "Do It All Night" that end the CD on a great high. If those 2 songs had been sold by themselves I would have still purchased the CD because they are so good. "Just One Kiss" could easily be played on any radio station. All the musical influences on Beau Jocque are so evedent in this collection. From War to Boozoo Chavis,ZZ Top to Archie Bell. If you ever wondered what good Zydeco music should sound like get this CD. Beau Jocque fans, this CD was made for us. Beau Jocque shouts out at one point on the CD "Was that alright ???". [You bet], Beau Jocque.

I have seen Beau Jocque in El'Sids in Lafayette, Richard's Club in Big Mammoo, The festival and at Brew and Bowl in New Orleans and miss him greatly. All of his music makes my body dance and my heart sing. Beau Jocque was Zydeco.

Beau Jocque is the undisputed King of Zydeco. Buckwheat Zydeco and Wayne Toups owe their fortune to this pioneer. Although Beau was before my time, we all must give him props for bringing the Zydedco sound to the forefront of the Cajun music scene. I rank Beau along with Clifton Chenier-as well as the Balfour Brothers-as the absolute pioneers of Cajun/Zydeco music.

He and his band will be missed but the music will stand the test of time...IIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!

Great CD. Exactly as described and rapid delivery. Very pleased with the Seller. Would recommend giving them a chance.
