Fiyo On The Bayou - Neville Brothers (1981)
Ideated from: a Black History Month reminder that black artists largely built the modern world of music
New Orleans never needed any help being an identifiable musical destination. But the Nevilles mixed the local musical traditions with top-notch songs and radio-ready production to make something special
A rollicking mix of cajun music with R&B, pop, rock, and early-80s disco.
Tracks I Liked
Hey Pocky Way - a great R&B single that can stand with the best of its era
The Ten Commandments of Love - Aaron’s unmistakable voice gets to soar here.
Brother John / Iko Iko - just dance.
