I've seen Beausoleil several times and while their studio work is great they're one of those bands, like Los Lobos, that really is better live than in the studio. Beausoleil's big break came at Wolf Trap, so it's approprirate to celebrate their anniversary by recording a live show there. This is actually a compilation put together from two nights and while it's five-star material, I really wish they'd picked one of the nights and made this a double (or triple) CD. The Doucet brothers and company have set the standard for Cajun music -- and have kept that standard high year after year. (Yeah, I know, Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys come close, but Beausoleil still reign supreme!) Put on this single disc (man, I wish there had been two!) and crank up your CD player. I can't speak a word of French or Cajun/French, but it doesn't matter. The infectious grooves of Beausoleil will grab you, get you up and out of your seat and shaking that booty. (If you're home with a significant other, I'm sure they'll dance with you. If you home alone, go for it -- but make sure the curtains are drawn!!!) Seriously, this is great, great music and like I said the only fault I have with any of it is that there just isn't enough. Yeah, it clocks in at over an hour, but 2 to 2-1/2 hours would have been even better! Mmmmmm. I don't get better than this, y'all.
