Pick Up on This!

 
Album Review: Pick Up on This!

Review

Beau Jocque's first album for Rounder Records, Pick Up on This!, is arguably his best effort to date. The key is in the groove -- there might not be much variety on the album, but he keeps the zesty zydeco rhythms pumping throughout. Jocque isn't the only one who shines, however. Every member of the band keeps things cooking, doing their best to ensure that Pick Up on This! is a first-rate party album. And that's exactly what it is. ~ Thom Owens, All Music Guide
