Summary: Solid 5-star album 2007-12-14
Comment: Great band, great album. They are not slavish imitators of the original recordings, but they are so tuned into them that it's the best of both worlds: An authentic spirit and modern recording technology.

Summary: Great Band 2007-05-04
Comment: Just saw these guy's at Merlefest in Wilkesboro, NC and the were awesome. I picked this CD up at the festival and can't get enough of it. Their live performances are full of energy and dynamics. I am a musician and really appreciate how polished they are. The classify themselves as a Cajun swing band and this is an accurate description. Blues, zydeco, swing, country all done with excellent mix. You will not be disappointed, buy it!
Keep it up "Red Stick Ramblers".

Summary: I guess I like Louisiana musicians 2006-07-03
Comment: I heard these guys live while streaming WDVX a month or so ago. They sounded pretty good and since I like the title song, which was in rotation on the station at the time, I bought the CD. An excellent decision. Not since Mary Gauthier's "Mercy Now" has a single CD spun so many times in my deck; if it were vinyl it'd be worn out. It goes from Bob Wills to Cab Calloway by way of Jole Blon. These guys have an arsenal of 70-year-old swing/jazz/blues cliches and they've mastered them. I have two concerns, but only the latter has an impact on the CD and that impact is marginal. 1) The piano is integral (and essential) on most of the cuts but the players appear to be sidemen, not part of the band. 2) An accordian would be a nice addition to the pieces with a Cajun or Parisian feel.

Summary: Superb 2005-09-02
Comment: I saw these guys at the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the were fantastic. Very skilled musicians playing original material and blending music of different genres. Keep your eye on these boys, they will continue to do great things ! They are even better live, if you get a chance to see them, don't miss it.

Summary: Elegant Cajun gypsy jazz swing 2005-07-11
Comment: The third CD from this Baton Rouge-based quintet ably stretches their fiddle-led gypsy jazz over a variety of styles. Linzay Young's old-timey blue-jazz vocals are a fine fit for Louisiana rhythms, country weepers, Western Swing, and vocal standards, and the band's originals mingle effortlessly among the well-selected covers. Fellow-travelers like Hot Club of Cowtown cook with similar ingredients, but the Ramblers' five-piece line-up provides a meatier sound, and their Louisiana stock adds a zest above and beyond the elemental ingredients.
Bob Wills' "That's What I Like About the South" is given a jump-blues edge and Clifton Chenier's "It's Hard to Love Someone" is sung with the jazzy inflections of Mose Allison's early work. The '30s jazz tune "It Ain't Right" is given to swinging fiddle and hot-picked guitar, and the band's originals include both country and Cajun waltzes and a tearful, close-harmony prison tune. Elegant taste, masterful playing, and a rambler's wanderlust make this disc a winner.
