Multi-CFMA award winner Kevin Naquin has consistently fielded good line-ups and delivered quality recordings, but this slamming disc is the dancehall fireball’s best yet. A few personnel changes provide a renewed sense of vigor, and newest member Seth Guidry leads a relentless attack with a monster bass groove.

Vocally, the Ossun Playboys are stronger than ever with four alternating singers. Naquin sings the lion’s share and has evolved into a competent, rock-energy vocalist since inheriting the role following John Gary’s 2001 departure. All provide solid harmonies while Naquin handles Belton Richard’s immortal classic “Another Lonely Night” without regrets. Gary has returned, and his tenor performances on “`Tits yeux noirs” and Camey Doucet’s signature “Mom, I’m Still Your Little Boy” are hard to top.

Additionally, the song selection is smart, including overlooked selections by Don Rich and Roddie Romero. True to form, Naquin contributes another waltz, “Les Fordoches” (a co-write with folklorist Barry Ancelet) to the repertoire.

Craving Cajun suggests that it’s for those who can’t get enough. The album’s so complete that it’s hard to imagine anyone wanting more.
