My obsession with Buckwheat Zydeco |
|
Every time I start drankin', I start listenin' to Buckwheat Zydeco. Due to the tragic loss of my CD collection (and recent reconsideration of my sobriety -- both events are quite possibly related), I have recently ordered $100 of worth of Buckwheat Zydeco albums.
So, how 'bout it: is popular Zydeco the finest musical achievement of mankind or not?

For me it doesn’t get any better than Lisa Haley and the Zydecats, I love her---and her music too. Check out “Don’t You Tell Your Mother” at— http://users.erols.com/ghayman/music.online.htm

I just bought her album. I hope it's good.
Otherwise, I'm going to hunt amateur-astronomer asteroid2003QQ47 like a dog. :evilgrin:

5. Clifton Chenier was the King of Zydeco |
|
He helped invent "modern" zydeco--here in Houston. Played it in the Frenchtown clubs to other homesick folks from Louisiana who'd come to Big Houston for work. I heard him many times back in the day.
But he's been gone for a while & it's great that the music continues.

In three weeks. I've already got a babysitter, a date, and a bottle of scotch. Cajun/Zydeco week at the Fremont Experience is one of the many (drunken) highlights of my year.
