Description

|
|
|
Reflecting the musical melting pot of southern Louisiana, the energy, exuberance, and musical expertise demonstrated by accordion wizard Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys in 1992's 'Tit galop pour Mamou placed them in the vanguard of groups responsible for Cajun music's upsurge in popularity. Besides the title track, the 14 toe-tapping selections include "Amédée Two Step," "Jongle à moi," "Blues de saoulard," "Dans les pins," "Cajun Special," "Donne-moi une autre chance," and "Mardi Gras Jig/Scott Playboy Special." Dancing shoes are suggested. "One of the finest Cajun bands in history."—Washington Post "Riley and the Mamou Playboys have set the standard for modern Cajun music through their strict adherence to tradition and their wild experimentation with that classic sound."—Sing Out!
