Featuring some of the most fun and boisterous performances of 2001, West Coast Mardi Gras Party is a great collection of Cajun music that reaches out to several other genres for inspiration. Country, jazz -- it all blends together on these 15 tracks to create a good soundtrack to a Louisiana-style good time. The best tracks here are probably the most jazz influenced; a good example is "Postman," a wonderful track from Eddie Baytos & the Nervis Brothers that uses the typical blues structure and blends big Dixieland horns and zydeco style rhythm to create an awesome track. Another great song, the Pulsators' "Back to Louisiana," is a roots rock ballad filtered through Cajun rhythms, creating the only real slow point of the album. Not all the songs are this good; in fact, a few of them are pretty average. But when the album picks up, it really picks up, and luckily nothing here is bad enough to skip past. Overall, this is a wonderful collection that should appeal to not only fans of the genre, but anyone who even wants to give Cajun music a chance for the first time. ~ Bradley Torreano, Rovi
