Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Fun music, depressing engineering.......2004-07-29

Four stars for the music here! If the music on this CD doesn't bring a smile to your face and make you want to dance then check your pulse! :) The music here is live performances by this ensemble in various places and times. The music is varied but uniformly good and sometimes superb. If you like the style even a little then you'll love the music here.

Two stars for the sound quality. On the other hand, the recording quality is also varied and ranges from awful to mediocre. The microphones are distant and there's (for me anyway) excessive pickup of the audience on many tracks. When the audience masks the the music there's a problem in my book.

Bottom line -- you'll enjoy the music but I hope you don't find the recording quality too much of a distraction.
