Louisiana's Francophone communities have faced down exile and persecution, natural and manmade disaster, by remaining resolutely creative. Steve Riley \u0026amp; the Mamou Playboys know this creativity intimately; what fiddler and co-leader David Greely eloquently calls \"survivor joy.\" It has echoed for centuries in everything from aching solo ballads to swamp pop blasts and funkified two-steps. Their latest album, Grand Isle (self-release; February 22, 2011) calls on this joy and shows it's defiant, resilient forms in all their glory, with help from producer, friend, and swamp-n-roll legend CC Adcock. They toss aside roots-music formulas to channel the energy of an entire community of multi-ethnic, hard-hitting eccentrics and activists, from a mad musical inventor of New Orleans to a pensive professor-lyricist, from a vintage recording guru to a bold local staging an oil spill photo exhibit in her dining room.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Danser Sans Comprendre [Dancing Without Uderstanding] \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Chatterbox \u003cbr\u003e1.3 C'est L'heure Pour Changer [This Is the Time for Change] \u003cbr\u003e1.4 C'est Ennuyant [It's Lonely] \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien [No Regrets] \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Pierre \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Valse de Chagrin [Waltz of Sorrow] \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Grand Isle \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Lyons Point \u003cbr\u003e1.10 C'est Trop [Too Much] \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Honest Papas Love Their Mamas Better \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Au Revoir \u003cbr\u003e1.13 [CD-ROM Track] [Multimedia Track]\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Steve Riley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42683185692743,"sku":"15525536","price":13.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/1805490.jpg?v=1775731714","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/steve-riley-grand-isle-compact-discs","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
