Almost 40 years on, BeauSoleil continues the zydeco vibes. They’re from Louisiana and have a worldly blend of blues, funk, jazz, calypso, folk... Instrumentation of fiddles, mandolin, accordion, bass, guitar, percussion, banjo. Mostly French lyrics. Really catchy and all excellent. No FCC’s.
*My Favorites*: All.
1. (2:53) Mid / Fast. Upbeat two-step fiddlin’ romp.
2. (2:55) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Easy-going glide.
3. (7:18) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Mellow funky, calypso flair.
4. (3:41) Mid. Easy-going, big fiddle solo.
5. (4:29) MId. Upbeat, accordion-led, cool percussion.
6. (6:34) Mid. Mellow, easy gait, feel-good w/ nice gtr.
7. (2:49) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Fiddle workout.
8. (3:05) Mid. Upbeat romper w/ solos.
