Cliften Chenier & His Red Hot Louisiana Band - New Orleans

The "King of Zydeco", Chenier, is a member of the Louisianna Music Hall of Fame, The Blues Hall of Fame, and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award winner. He is presented here with 13 set of all original compositions. Recorded in the late '70s with one of his classic bands, which featured his brother on washboard, saxophonist John Hart, and guitarist Paul Senegal, among others. The album is textbook Chenier - which means it rocks & rolls, wails and shouts. It's may be a typical record for the king of zydeco, but that means it's very, very enjoyable.
