Michael Doucet Dit Beausoleil - I think this was Michael Doucet's first album with Beausoleil and may be his first album altogether. Just a bit rawer and bluesier than later records and all the better for it. I guess some folks would consider Doucet's brand of Cajun a bit homogenized compared to some of the earthier backwoods stuff, but I have always found the musicianship on the early Beausoleil and Savoy-Doucet records to be impeccable and very soulful.
