Earlier, I posted some Zydeco music (Zydeco 1 and Zydeco 2) which you should pick up, but even though this pick is NOT zydeco, it comes from sort of the same place. But this was not inspired by those zydeco picks. I hate to admit it, but I have read all the books and watched the True Blood series. And I liked them. As I hang my head in shame, I can tell you that the books were better and worse at the same time. I liked the changes in the show and hated them at the same time. But they did a good job. Especially with the music. The Jace Everett opener "Bad Things" was a brilliant choice and THAT was the inspiration for this playlist. So of course there's Chris Isaak (two even) because they just fit. And all of it from Chickasaw Mudd Puppies to ZZ Top would fit in with the feeling. Have some wine, listen to the tracks and then binge.
