Git It While You Can! April 2, 2006
I never got to see Beau Jocque live and I'm sad because I found his music a few weeks ago.
I really like Jocque's style of zydeco and plan to buy more from him even though it would be tough to beat this good sounding live recording. It has a free form flow to it that I love and a tad over one hour of happy jamming music.
If you like non traditional zydeco, you'll love this recording too.
Did ya git it?!?! February 13, 2006
I picked up this CD in 96 after listening to a few seconds of just a few songs. It got me rockin instantly. A few months later on a trip to NOLA I just happened to pick up a paper to see where to go and there was Beau Jocque playing at the Rock and Bowl(I think thats what it was called). They rocked that place so hard the floor was buckling! This CD is the next best thing to seeing him live(if you were lucky enough). Any guy who can make a rocker out of raffle ticket numbers and licence plate numbers is number 1 in my book.
So good it sizzles. October 20, 2005

"Git It, Beau Jocque" is almost indescribably good music. It isn't that polite, lightweight zydeco you see in some movies and hear on some CDs. This is gut bustin high energy zydeco with an electric bass line that never quits - powerful and compelling all at once. Bass and accordion driven music of such intensity and life you wonder how they could POSSIBLY survive a whole set. I have several other B.J. CDs that are very good, probably 4-stars, but "Git It..." is something special. This is an incredible document of an amazing music performance - a treasure.

Beau Jocque and the Hi-Rollers were my favorite Zydecko band.
I have every CD they made, I think. This is one of the best.
Make plenty of room to boogie with this one!!! November 9, 2001

This is the first zydeco CD I ever purchased after seeing Beau Jocque and his band perform on Jay Leno. I was not disappointed in the least. It's high energy, his band is one of the most tightly woven groups I've ever heard, particularly his bass player, who plays some of the stankest, fonkiest bass ever. This CD will make you dance like an idiot, non-stop. It even got me through the graveyard shift doing data entry at a bank. Just put it on repeat and get ready to boogie. Even if you don't dance, you'll tap your feet, snap your fingers, bob your head, find something to shake or scratch. I must admit I rode around with a tambourine in my car, shakin' it like a fool while sitting in traffic. Go get this one. You'll love it.
