Roscoe Style is The Right Stuff!, March 24, 2002
Roscoe Chenier is perhaps one of the best kept blues secrets from Louisiana. Roscoe is often overlooked and has been overshadowed by his more famous cousin, the late "King of Zydeco" Clifton Chenier. However, those that have seen him perform at the New Orleans Jazz Festival and/or in clubs along the Louisiana crawfish circuit, know that Roscoe is the real deal. Unlike his cousin, Roscoe relies upon his guitar rather than on accordian to conjure up that cajun sound. Upon first listen, you will hear a lot of BB King in both Roscoes playing as well as his vocals. Give Roscoe Style a listen and you will find yourself looking for some of his earlier releases on the Avenue Jazz label.
