More like a hot rod Lincoln on fire than a Rambler on rust, these five come atcha with the full-tilt, first-cut title tune-an Americana epic about corn liquor that will move your feet unless you have Van Gogh’s ear for music. Helping to make their point on the band’s fourth album are two fiddles although one is generally sufficient, and anyway, “It’s all dance music,” said fiddler Linzay Young. Originally, a litter of Tigers from LSU in 2002, the current line-up offers all sorts of stuff from the neighborhood-ragin’ Cajun, blues, western swing, jazz and old timey music that O Brother, could’ve upstaged the Soggy Bottom Boys in that wonderful Coen brothers’ movie. Whether it’s their cover and reliable dance-floor igniter, Clifton Chenier’s “Hot Tamale Baby” or “Tes Parentes Ne Veuloent Plus Me Vour,” all in French and translated into English becomes “huh,” or more to the point, “don’t stop.” Some of the slo-mo country whiners are so-so, but mostly these Ramblers have NASCAR power.
