Currently, The Dots have six recordings and are also part of three compilations. Recording number one was done in 1988 on cassette (pre CD technology) entitled Zydeco Express. The second two Miss Using Me and Looka Dis Looka Dat were recorded in the early 90's, also on cassette. Two out of the three compilations were on the Houston Music Council CD's, both done in the mid 90's. The third compilation distributed in 1993 is titled Texas Zydeco Greats on the Collectables label. This CD featured a number of great artists such as I P Sweat, Johnny Winter, Edgar Winter, Clifton Chenier, Clarence Garlow, Link Davis, and Stevie Ray Vaughn playing guitar for Lou Ann Barton singing Scratch My Back. The remaining two CD's are Naked Zydeco and Tribute to Clif. Naked Zydeco was released in 94 featuring Pierre Blanchard on accordion and Tribute to Clif was released in 2000 which featured Leon Sam on accordion. All of the above CD's are still available.
