A self-descriptive album title if there ever was one, as Octa Clark, Hector Duhon, and Michael Doucet go through a standard Cajun repertoire that gets into polkas, dance tunes, waltzes, and the (overdone) classic "Jolie Blonde," with Clark singing in French. It's well-done traditional Cajun music with that identifiably regional catch-cry in Clark's vocals, which sound as though they belong to a man a good deal younger (Clark was in his mid-sixties at the time of this recording).
