Search - Buckwheat Zydeco :: Buckwheat Zydeco's Party (Dlx)

Raucous, rowdy, and rambunctious in the best possible light, Buckwheat's Zydeco Party presents nimble-fingered, showstopping accordionist and band-leader Buckwheat Zydeco pulling the listener in for a Louisiana-styled throw down. The rhythms are hot and crazy, the band is tight, and the party is an explosion of two-steps and R&B flavored melodies. Included are the regional hit "Ya-Ya," a fiery take on Zydeco granddaddy Clifton Chenier's "Hot Tamale Baby," and a mix of traditional and original tunes. Furthermore, the Rounder reissue comes with extensive liner notes detailing the Buckwheat Zydeco story as well as the potent impact of the genre on American culture. When high-energy celebration is the mood to invoke, Buckwheat's Zydeco Party is the right fit. --Paige La Grone
