More Than "Just" Zydeco.......2002-02-06

Although Mumbo Gumbo seems to have cut its teeth in the zydeco/ Louisiana dance music genre, it strongly suggests a broader musical base on "Deep Soup"-- by virtue of not only the eclectic song mix, but also the band's sheer talent. Having grown up in Davis, California with several of the key band members, including the lead singer, Chris Webster, and the drummer, Rick Lotter, I can tell you that they are capable of almost anything musically. While the straight-ahead party music of such cuts as "Sugar Pit" and "Ay Ay Ay" are entertaining enough, I'm more interested in the jazzier/ bluesier tracks ("I'm Driving," "Everything I Do"), as well as Chris Webster's showstopping Jimmy Cliff cover, "Sitting In Limbo." Ultimately the group may outgrow its present niche-- and perhaps they have already done so. In the meantime, though, "Deep Soup" is a fun album that hints at much bigger things.
