    All Music Guide Review

    Billed as "a musical celebration of Louisiana's contribution to the world of music," this narrows the framework down to just spotlighting the myriad strains of piano playing that has infused that state. Rounding up tracks from Jelly Roll Morton, Professor Longhair, Fats Domino, Little Richard (he's from Georgia, therefore somewhat of a ringer in this set), Ray Charles (not from Louisiana and neither are these tracks -- curious), Jerry Lee Lewis, Huey "Piano" Smith, Allen Toussaint, Clarence "Frogman" Henry, and Dr. John, the rocking quotient stays pretty high throughout, and the set jells nicely. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide
