Armand St. Martin and his Bayou Bohemians
SIZZLIN’
Patty Lee Records: PL-03461


Be forewarned, this CD is a mood elevator of the first order! If you are in a low mood or a “bad space” as the shrinks say, keep this CD out of your player, at risk of finding yourself tapping your feet and snapping your fingers.

Even the blusiest cuts on St. Martin’s latest effort are infused with a rollicking beat and the irresistible rhythm of his boogie-woogie piano playing that, while reminiscent of the maniac from Ferriday, is inexorably linked to St. Martin’s New Orleans roots. It may be swingier than it is funky, but the influences of Toussaint, Domino, Rebennack and even Booker are there.

Listening to this CD makes you want to see St. Martin live, as you can hear the great joy of a born entertainer in his big baritone voice. He loves to tell a story with his songs, and you can hear him smiling when you get it; he wants you, the listener, in on the deal, and it works on every song.

A crew of capable west coast players (where this CD was recorded) aid and abet the high-spirited piano pumping party that Armand St. Martin throws; it is good ol’ New Orleans rock and roll served up “sizzlin’” hot!

- by Bob Compton, F.Y.I. Magazine (sister magazine to Beatstreet), New Orleans, Jazz Fest issue, 2004. Also, reprinted in The Beachwood Voice in Hollywood, Ca. in 2005.
