Music reviews of Cosimo Matassa Story

Music Review: Cosimo is Essential
Rating: 5 Stars

I bought this when it was first released - in fact I had been waiting to get it ever since I heard the title. I have long been a fan of New Orleans R&B so was very aware of just who Cosimo is. This is an essential box set for anyone into great music. This stuff is timeless. Even for someone like me, who had a lot of this material already, it is so filled with hard to find songs that even if you had 3/4 of this stuff, you'd still want it. And these songs are great to hear anytime.

Fans of the recent Alison Krauss/Robert Plant will want to hear the original version of Rich Woman (by Li'l Millett & His Creoles - love that name), but really, there's not a bad track in this set.

********** TEN STARS!!!!
