While Zydeco crossed over to the mainstream in a big way in the '80s courtesy of artists like Buckwheat Zydeco, Little Sidney, and Queen Ida, it was in the '90s that the style truly began to assimilate more modern elements like funk, rock, and R&B. This compilation on Stanley "Buckwheat" Dural's own label documents the very contemporary place at which zydeco music has arrived in the 21st century. While the first couple of cuts from Buckwheat are in a fairly traditional mode, offerings from young zydeco cats Sean Ardoin (descendant of the legendary Amede Ardoin) and Lil' Brian are based more on modern funk and R&B grooves, using the conventional zydeco trappings as just one more ingredient to throw into the pot. Not to be outdone, Buckwheat closes the disc out with an incendiary, epic-length version of "Hey Joe," and one can't help thinking that Jimi Hendrix would have whole-heartedly approved.
