Product Details
Michael Doucet has spent decades rescuing Cajun fiddle tradition from obscurity, carrying the torch lit by elders like Canray Fontenot and Dennis McGee while dragging the music into conversation with zydeco, blues, and beyond. Beausoleil became the band that proved southwest Louisiana's French-speaking musical heritage wasn't a relic, it was a living, breathing, dancefloor-filling force.
A lively and wide-ranging introduction to Cajun dance legend Michael Doucet Beausoleil and his band Beausoleil. This greatest hits collection is a treat for diehard fans as well as beginners, who can expect to move and be moved.
