Album Review

Any album featuring Michael Doucet's fiddle playing is a treat. But here in the bare-bones company of Marc Savoy on accordion, Anne Savoy on acoustic guitar and vocals, and string bassist Billy Wilson on seven tracks performing live before enthusiastic dancers, we get a true slice of the real thing without the commerical studio overlay. Featuring 18 tracks that total over a 76-minute running time, this one's a delightful toe tapper every note of the way.
