Finger lickin good... A little lovin' gets you through the night.
Next two songs were an absolut blast...ultra funky, with a different sounding accordion.
Their version of 'Baby please don't go' was unbelievable. Best version I've ever heard...

Reife instrumentale Leistungen der Musiker und ein humorvoll-sympathisches Auftreten rundeten den Eindruck einer ausgewogenen, engagierten und versierten Truppe ab.

...templates from the old testament of cajun, blues from the legendary Excello label, stomping zydeco and a honky-tonk in 50’s style.... with their well chosen classics and own repertoire this five piece band delivers a great swamp sound…

...the Cajun Roosters perform their very authentic mix of cajun with a side order of zydeco, swamp pop and swamp blues, and the listener feels as if they are in a dance club in Louisiana…
