Soldat Louis Live and Rocking

G. Berrigan | Northern California | 10/23/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is awesome...a live performance by Bretagne band Soldat Louis at an annual music festival in France. Their performance is electric and the audience is enthusiastic, with good reason. Whether one understands the lyrics or not, the heart and soul comes through. The band's sympathies are with ethnic Breton's and their Celtic cousins in northern Ireland, but they are equally riotious and bawdy with their sailing and drinking songs inspired, perhaps, by their home port of L'orient on the west coast of Bretagne (Breizh). If you want to hear good, live rock and roll mixed with great traditional pipers, get this CD if you can find it. C'est magnifique!"
