- Default Title
Description
Over the last few years, most of the Zydeco news has been focused on the younger bands--the musicians ready to take up where Clifton Chenier left off. While this was going on, though, Boozoo Cha, an old-timer who started recording before most of the newcomers were born, made an end run around all the youngsters and became Zydeco's main man on the Texas-Louisiana circuit in 1990. This album collects Cha's early recordings, made between with mid-'50s and early '60s for Louisiana's Goldband label. Without question, these are among the most raw sounding--and among the most --performances ever to make it onto tape, but they're also refreshingly personal and spontaneous.
