  • Great Gypsy Jazz!
    author: Mike

    The guitar and violin interplay make this Gypsy Jazz very interesting to listen to.

  • Vintage style Gypsy Jazz
    author: Ilana Marks

    I love it when I discover different types of music that catch my fancy. This CD did just that - I had never heard Django Reinhardt style guitar/violin jazz before but now I can't get enough of it. This CD showcases superb performances of very talented musicians blending together to produce a charming brand of vintage Gypsy Jazz.

  • Music to make the soul light and bouncy
    author: Brian

    If I ever needed an example of music to put you in a good mood, I'd reach no further than The Hot Club Quartette. Their music is bright and lively, making me forget any troubles as I transport myself to an idealized 30s of Paris where everything is perfect and wonderful. It hasn't mattered if I'm in a bad mood, or had a long day; a liberal application of this CD makes everything great again.

    These guys sound absolutely fantastic. The CD is wonderful, and they are even better live! How do I know this? I was able to hire these fine gents to play at my wedding! They made our day. Everyone there went nuts over these guys, and many said it was by far the best band they had ever heard at a wedding. If you gave a chance to see them perform around town (Los Angeles), don't miss it! They are by far the best at this genre of music, and four of the friendliest people I know. A 5 star ensemble!!!!!

  • Fantastic, fun, and frisky; easy, soulful and sweet. We love it!

    Our son gave us this CD for Xmas and we've been playing it every day since. Looking forward to the next edition.

  • Soulful gypsy swing
    author: Greg

    Great music in the Django Reinhardt tradition. While it doesn't pack in as many notes in rapid succession as the Rosenberg Trio or Sinti it is extremely melodious, soulful, and fun to listen to.

  • Bravo!
