5.0 out of 5 stars About the best live album I have ...., February 27, 2004

By	Geoff Hall "Geoff Hall" (Borehamwood, UK) - See all my reviews

....and I have quite a few.
I have only recently become a fan of the band, but what a sensational troupe of people they are.

Having bought "Deux Voyages", it seemed to me obvious that the next album to buy should be a live one and I made the right choice. They were obviously very relaxed when they recorded the album - it comes through very clearly. The atmosphere is electric and the band just stomp along at such a lick. The 53-odd minutes seemed over in a flash. I had such a ball listening to it - i had to listen to it again immediately to make sure I didn't miss anything.

No weak track, just wonderful Cajun music. They sing and talk in either French or English and slip between the two languages naturally and with the utmost ease.

Just a sensational album and one for the connoisseurs of ALL music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Cajun Music, March 20, 2002

By A Customer

My daughter, who lives in Louisiana, recently gave me this CD. I had never heard of the group but had other Cajun and Zydeco CD's for comparison. Overall, this has to be one of the best I have which includes Beausoleil, David Doucet, D.L. Menard, Bruce Daigrepont, Queen Ida, Clifton Chenier and Jo-El Sonnier. I highly recommend you add this CD to your collection if you like Cajun music. For the full pleasure, I recommend you listen to the CD at least once with a good set of earphones. I am in the heart of Bluegrass music country and this Cajun music is also greatly appreciated.
