No, but I used to go to Grand Isle some weekends.

It's sorta prog Cajun, which is fine by me. These guys have earned the right not to repeat themselves.

The traditional tune is my favorite, though - Lyons Point. It's recorded as one track, I believe, with no overdubs. Has a great feel...

I bought the cd from them at La Poussiere. Great album! and you sure are right Mr. Beaudoing Lyons Point is an awesome song. Is this an original tune of theirs? or is it a traditional tune ? accordion, fiddle, vocals, and a tit fer. Dont get any better

Re: Anyone listened to: Grand Isle? (the new Mamou Playboy's CD?)

Got my copy last week and I've listened to it a couple of times, still familiarizing myself with it. I find it quite different, much more mellow than the previous material, refreshing and outside of beaten paths. Worth it!
