Bizouk could easily be the best zouk album of 1992. Patrick St. Eloi has developed into an extraordinary vocalist, percussionist, and arranger. The material here is all first-rate zouk, sprinkled with twists, turns, surprises, and creative changes in tempo and key. "Direksion" alone is worth the price of admission. "Chabon" is another track that was a huge hit in the Antilles. There is no syrup or filler on this album. Although the synthesizer tweaks are in places amazing, the traditional gwo ka drum of Guadeloupe has its place alongside the technological sequencers. This is one of the main reasons that he is so successful and retains a very loyal following in French Antillean and African music circles. He has melded the traditional and modern in a truly unique creative style. Bizouk is state-of-the-art zouk, and one never tires of listening to an exceptional artist in flight. Highly recommended. ~ Mark Romano, Rovi
