Geno Delafose is perhaps the only young Creole musician to have discovered the wealth of inspiration and feeling in the traditional Creole and Cajun repertoire, and as a result he's making music which stands apart from anything else in zydeco today. Along with the house-rocking sound of his band, French Rockin' Boogie, Geno plays several acoustic pieces with guitarist Christine Balfa and fiddler Dirk Powell, while Steve Riley joins the band, playing fiddle, on two songs. Here is one of the most spirited, inventive and varied albums of traditional Louisiana dance music you're likely to hear.
