The Sundogs are far from a traditional Cajun band, and their Louisiana-influenced boogie isn't zydeco either. And yet, no review of Howlin' would be complete without examining the Louisiana influences prominent on this CD (which was recorded not in New Orleans or Baton Rouge, but in San Francisco). "Calypso Zydeco," "Fais Do Do" and "Fog On the Mountaintop" are best described as Southern-style roots-rock with Cajun overtones.
