The Mad Reel

Michael Doucet’s first recordings were with the Arhoolie label in the early 1980s. An accomplished fiddle player, Doucet is a principal figure in the preservation and revival of Cajun music. His research of Cajun music considers both its French roots and Louisiana branches. This collection is composed of sessions with an early version of his band Beausoliel, with his teacher and mentor Dennis McGee, and music from the soundtrack of the 1986 film Belizaire the Cajun.
