4.0 out of 5 stars party music from the Bayou, June 26, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Let Me Play With Your Poodle (Audio CD)
I've been following Marcia off and on for the last 10 years...always thought of her as a fun artist with a nice voice and enough piano to make her credible.

Then I heard this album...she cranks out a bunch of blistering pounding piano solos that impressed this old hard heart.

Go get this one...by far the best of her albums

5.0 out of 5 stars Make it talk girl!!!, April 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Let Me Play With Your Poodle (Audio CD)
This was a chance purchase by my Father who shares my love of blues. I feel like I have been let into a new field of boogie~woogie, key dancin...world. This lady is fantastic, I would give my right left toe to be able to do what she does to those ivorys. Play with Your Poodle is a piece of mastery that would bring anyone out of the deepest funk they have ever been in. I thought for a minute this lady knew me in 'can't trust my heart'... Wonderful mix of boogie and soulful heart breakers... I will be working my through the rest of these! If you love piano music of this kind as I do, this is a must have..the whole CD is great....

5.0 out of 5 stars Marcia's best to date., June 25, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Let Me Play With Your Poodle (Audio CD)
I think this is Marcia Ball's most far-reaching and sophisticated CD to date. Her full range as a musican and singer are on display. The first song "Let Me Play With Your Poodle", reaches out, grabs you out of your chair, and takes you full-speed into the joyous world that is Marcia Ball's music. You get the full drive and power of her piano playing. Other Louisiana type songs include "Crawfishin'" and "The Right Tool for the Job". "American Dream" is a little bit different for Marcia--a Delbert McClinton-style rocker--but it's become one of my favorites. Lost-love ballads like "The Story of My Life" are a great change of pace, and the final song "Evangeline" is a quietly passionate cover of a Randy Newman song that is just exquisite.

I thought "Blue House" was the best, but this is even better. It really shows off the Marcia Ball Band (which, unfortunately, has seen almost a complete turnover since this CD came out) at its most mature and powerful.
