I like this cd- especially the first track "(Untitled ) Love Song" and the version of "Oh La La" as well.

Unusual set of cover tunes since most of them are not household name artists or tracks.

They also mentioned Poco and Pickin' Up The Pieces in their liner notes regarding the song Amie. They said it was like the "Beatles on bourbon".

Hmm, I kinda like it, even if it sounded somewhat sacrilegious at first.

Nice version with a Cajun accordion twist.Reminds me a little of the new Poco Cajun version of "In the Heart of The Night" with Mike Webb's great accordion.

Cajun-style musical arrangements must be "in" this year.
