Details
[Edit]It's always disheartening when a great album slides by without receiving much attention. That's exactly what happened with this little-known CD by the band Mamou, which specialized in a risk-taking blend of Cajun music and rock. This adventurous, exuberant foursome (which writes in both French and English) doesn't hesitate to draw on a variety of rock styles. While "Between the Lines" has a blues-rock appeal that wouldn't be out of place on a ZZ Top album, Mamou brings a healthy amount of punk rock influence to "Bayou Teche," "Les Flammes D'En Fer" and "Un Homme De Pitie," as well as the traditional "Jolie Blonde" (a song that anyone who's into Louisiana music has heard at some point). This out-of-print album (which was recorded in Austin, TX.) could be hard to find, but is definitely worth obtaining if you can find a copy.
