"True Essence of Cajun Music"???

I could not wrap my head around this. It's hard to feature such an instrument that only makes one sound. But somehow someone thought it was worth almost an hour's worth of time on a CD.

I love this quote:

"Melodic or harmonic content just gets in the way of, you know, what the triangle can really ... The nuances that can really be brought out ... You'll notice the nuances and the differences," Justus says. "Each song has a story all its own."

I don't want to knock the triangle. It has its place in music, don't get me wrong. But the spotlight is not where I'd expect the triangle to be found.
