Review

There's no doubting the zydeco star's crossover intentions here. Terrance Simien offers added percussion, the drums mixed up radio-ready, understated vocals backed by chorales, and songs and arrangements that are less zydeco than pop-with-accordion ("This Old Road"), folkie remakes ("5000 Miles"), and references to dead rock stars and 12-step programs ("Grandma's House"). Most of the time, this kitchen-sink approach sounds gimmicky, cluttered, and out of whack. But when it gels--the rocking "All Her Lovin'" and "Mardi Gras in the Country," a mournful yet decidedly untraditional "Jole Blon," an impossibly chipper and catchy revival of Wet Willie's "Keep on Smilin'"--it's just as obvious that Simien and his fans (the Beadheads of the CD title) are definitely on to something. --John Morthland
