'Tit Galop Pour Mamou

Amazon.com
Before evolving into a more fusiony group of Cajun neotraditionalists, Riley and his Playboys hit their stride in 1992 with this sweet and strong collection of traditional French hits given a fresh rhythmic or harmonic twist alongside some rediscovered treasures. The best of the latter category is "La Petite Anna a Magene Meaux," about a young girl whose dancing partner spins her so swiftly she disappears into thin air. The Playboys demonstrate how smoothly Cajun music combines with the blues ("Blues du Saoulard"), country ("Les Barres de la Prison"), and bluegrass ("Dans les Pins"), while Riley's diatonic accordion gives new life to such Cajun standbys as "Amedee Two Step" and legendary tunesmith Dewey Balfa's title track. Christine Balfa's triangle is completely old school, and the Playboys perform with practiced dance-hall authority throughout this fine example of down-home revivalism. --Richard Gehr
