Fabulously catchy meringues by a celebrated female accordionist. Hot percussion, sax, vocals all combine for a wild and lively release. Not a dud in the bunch. If you can sit still while listening to this then you’re probably in a coma. 1. Fast & fresh w/great solos. Wickedly wiggly and oh so good. 2. Starts mid, picks up with extra good accordion, perc, vocals. Yow! 3. Starts w/cool drums then vocals & band tripping over each other. 4. Impressively fast accordion work plus great vocals & perc. 5. Squeaky and driving w/a great bouncy drive. 6. Tripping melody w/interplay of lead vocals & chorus. 7. Upbeat w/changing rhythms & great accordion solo. 8. Total accordion tour de force. Man she’s good! 9. Bright & lively folk dance w/a party air. 10. Bouncy and driving w/soaring vocals. 11. Wiggly and wicked fast. A total hip-shaker. 12. Sharp accordion bounce, lively perc & vocals. 13. A bit of jazz, sweet sax/accordion interplay. Vox & perc too. | ||
