Step It Up! Is state of the art zydeco from a masterful performer. Chenier flavors the Red Hot Louisiana Band's double-kick bayou beat with elements of funk, blues and ballads, as well as turning it loose on more traditional zydeco material. The resulting record is loaded with irresistible dance grooves. C.J. contributed six originals to the record and he infuses all tracks with strong, soulful singing and skillful accordion playing. C. J. Chenier is the Creole son of the Grammy Award-winning "King of Zydeco", Louisiana musician, Clifton Chenier. In 1987, Chenier followed in his father's footsteps and led his father's band as an accordion performer and singer of zydeco, a blend of cajun and creole music. With five previous albums to his credit, by 1994, Chenier began to record for Chicago-based Alligator Records. Track List: 01. Zydeghost [4:23] 02. It's About Time [5:00] 03.
