Excellent Intro to Gypsy Jazz.......2007-05-15

I fell in love with the CD as soon as I sampled it on Amazon, and couldn't wait for my order to come in. It is an EXCELLENT introduction to the dreamy, capturing music of Gypsy Jazz.

No matter whatelse is on the five disc playset, this CD adds a lively counterpoint. With elements of jazz, Western swing, Latin rhythms and Parisian influences, the melodies have a sophisticated worldly appeal with emotional content. The various styles are connected by superb fiddling. A great mail order bargain, not generally available in stores.

Hot! Hot! Hot!.......2005-04-15

Unlike some of the gypsy jazz groups that are around today and very much dedicated to the music of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli, the Hot Club of San Francisco have added quite a few new originals and offbeat material to their repertoire. The quintet/sextet, which differs from the Quintet of the Hot Club of France in its use of two violins on five of the 13 selections, plays tangos, waltzes, and some more modern tunes in addition to Django swing tunes. Guitarist Paul Mehling and violinist Evan Price are the main soloists, but all of the musicians are quite talented. Whether it be the heated "Lover's Leap," the haunting "Alle Prese Son una Verde Milonga," a vocalized version of "Nuages" (renamed "Theme from Gypsyland"), or "Song of India," this CD is a consistent delight that is full of surprising moments and fresh material.
