5 out of 5 stars an amazing trip to a far off place.......2006-01-02

This album is Cafe Noir's best recording in my opinion. There is song after song of great and memorable music. The guitar work is amazing, and the compositional style is highly refined. There is so much subtle beauty in this album, as well as an infectious flare. I love this album, and I hate that the group seemingly wont be making any more music.

5 out of 5 stars Melancholy the way it used to be ..........2003-04-08

Waltz King is definitely my favourite CD: the melody of the songs, the viruosity of the musicians and above all the melancholic yet happy sounds of the violin... For a moment you will think you are listening to a beautiful Hungarian gypsy song, while on the other, the serene sounds will remind you of Chopin.
An inspiring mixture of gypsy, jazz, classic and folk music!

4 out of 5 stars Droopy afternoon coffee music.......2002-10-25

Ah, I just love Cafe Noir. I remember them from Dallas, way back in the '80s. At any rate, if you are looking for intelligent, European-sounding background music for your next cocktail party, this is it. Even the singing is low-key and melancholy.

2 out of 5 stars disappointing follow-up CD to Cafe Noir..........2002-07-01

Cafe Noir's self-titled first CD is an instrumental modern classic of gypsy 'n' classical musics... BUT this CD is a disappointment to my ears as i do not enjoy the singer or his lyrics or his compositions on this CD & other Cafe Noir CDs... i bought it & quickly sold it at my local used CD store...

3 out of 5 stars Good but not Live.......2000-01-22

The CD is good, but not nearly as good as I was wishing for. It just didn't have the same style as the live performance I bought it at did. While it is still really cool, you have to see this group perform live. They are absolutely fantastic and like nothing I've ever heard before.
