Summary: Solid 5-star album
Comment: Great band, great album. They are not slavish imitators of the original recordings, but they are so tuned into them that it's the best of both worlds: An authentic spirit and modern recording technology.

Summary: Great Band
Comment: Just saw these guy's at Merlefest in Wilkesboro, NC and the were awesome. I picked this CD up at the festival and can't get enough of it. Their live performances are full of energy and dynamics. I am a musician and really appreciate how polished they are. The classify themselves as a Cajun swing band and this is an accurate description. Blues, zydeco, swing, country all done with excellent mix. You will not be disappointed, buy it!
Keep it up "Red Stick Ramblers".

Summary: I guess I like Louisiana musicians
Comment: I heard these guys live while streaming WDVX a month or so ago. They sounded pretty good and since I like the title song, which was in rotation on the station at the time, I bought the CD. An excellent decision. Not since Mary Gauthier's "Mercy Now" has a single CD spun so many times in my deck; if it were vinyl it'd be worn out. It goes from Bob Wills to Cab Calloway by way of Jole Blon. These guys have an arsenal of 70-year-old swing/jazz/blues cliches and they've mastered them. I have two concerns, but only the latter has an impact on the CD and that impact is marginal. 1) The piano is integral (and essential) on most of the cuts but the players appear to be sidemen, not part of the band. 2) An accordian would be a nice addition to the pieces with a Cajun or Parisian feel.

Summary: New Trad at its finest
Comment: If you love New Trad bands, like the Mammals, the Duhks, Old Crow Medicine Show, King Wilkie and so on, or if you're a fan of the old boys like Bob Wills, The Balfa Brothers, Hank Williams, The Hackberry Ramblers, and so forth, you need to get you some Red Stick Ramblers!
Elegant twin fiddles, rockin' blues guitar, classic rhythms and flawless song choices are what these guys are known for. They've practically incited riots throughout the country (from Maine to Alaska, Chicago to LA, Florida to their home in Louisiana) with their danceable interpretations of old Cajun tunes, honky tonk ballads and Western Swing numbers, as well as their tradition-inspired originals. If you don't have this, get it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Superb
Comment: I saw these guys at the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the were fantastic. Very skilled musicians playing original material and blending music of different genres. Keep your eye on these boys, they will continue to do great things ! They are even better live, if you get a chance to see them, don't miss it.
