Notes

One of radio’s best music shows brings you the very best in Louisiana music on this collection from Blue Plate. Marcia Ball, queen of New Orleans good time blues, does a jumping “La-Ti-Da.” There’s Cajun music aplenty with the newer sounds of Jo-El Sonnier and Wayne Toups, as well as the traditional reels of Beausoleil. Queen Ida and C J Chenier give you a healthy dose of Zydeco and, naturally, there’s a taste of Dixieland from the Dirty Dozen and the Olympia Brass Band. For those who like it on the cutting edge, the Subdudes and Sonny Landreth (killer slide guitar!) are also on hand. As they say in Louisiana, it’s “always for pleasure” … that ain’t no lie!
