专辑介绍
by Alex Henderson
A rich product of the Creole-American culture in Louisiana, singer/accordion player Nathan Williams and his band the Zydeco Cha Chas became one of the most popular zydeco dance bands of the late 1980s and early- to late-'90s. Follow Me Chicken points to the fact that while Williams is very much an admirer of the great Clifton Chenier, he's also a fine artist in his own right. This CD is full of surprises -- in addition to providing sweaty originals like &Hey Maman& and &Tout Partout Mon Passe,& Chicken finds Williams interpreting bluesman Z.Z. Hill's &I Need Someone to Love Me& and translating Stevie Wonder's 1977 hit &Isn't She Lovely& into French Creole. Another high point of the risk-taking album is &Mama's Tired,& which combines zydeco with both ska and '60s-type soul. And African influences are incorporated on &Zydeco Road& and &Zydeco Is Alright,& both of which employ guest Kenyatta Simon on the djembe (a West African instrument). Follow Me Chicken is a disc that zydeco enthusiasts should make a point of obtaining.
