Gypsy jazz swingin fun kissed by bright melodies, and animated solos, wrapped in a foot stompin arm in arm dancin, touching on the old time, lingering in the 1920's, touring the world styles of sometime flamenco, russian folk, or latin, body shaking, hands in the air, outer body existential momentary bliss from the daily drudge, remember to breath or you'll get light headed intoxicatingly damn good time..
