Free Music Review: A Wonderful World of Melodic Soulful Sounds
Hit: 5 Stars
Gypsy Kings Live is an album that speaks for the heart, body, mind and soul. It brings together many Mexican / Spanish flavors with a touch of Caribbean style all of its own. The steel drums ring out a melody like non you've every heard. The guitars and bass make your hips sway as your heart soars into the sky. This is a fantastic album you must buy.
Free Music Review: the best primer, a great addition to the old hand
Hit: 5 Stars
this the album to get if you're just starting out with the gypsy kings - or a lover of their studio work. it's a great primer of their whole collection - jewels just waiting to be found. a live version of all their biggest hits to the date, it's a perfect intro of the gypsy house of love. all of it in perfectly mastered sound and pumping rhythm.
the best of the best is here: Djobi Djoba, Habla Me (moving and beautiful redition), Bem, Bem, Maria, Mauro, and their mammoth USA hit Bamboleo. it's a full panoramic view of the gypsy kings, the whole of the singing, playing, dancing family - from the 'forlorn love' to the upbeat pulsing flamingo. this is sing-along "got to dance" latin romance, straight from the real gypsies of the south of france. almost as good as seeing them live. the guitar work here is amazing and i'd be hard pressed to find such a talented group who sings with such enthusiasm and skill. nothing is contrived here. nothing feels false about their sound or playing. i know all the words and can't speak of lick of spanish. interesting enough, it's also worth is to check out their patriarch jose reyes in french and them move on to their album 'love and liberte.' be warned: gypsy king fans are pretty undying in their love for the band, and this album puts you in jeopardy of becoming one.

This cd is so great that I have worn out 2 cassettes and 2 CD's. It's great!Free Music Review: A brilliant intro to the Gipsy Kings
Hit: 5 Stars
This was the first Gipsy Kings albumm I ever bought and now stands with a collection of eight of their albums. As the reviewer said, an appreciation of the Gipsy Kings is only really gained through a concert (my first experience about 20 years ago) but this album comes as close to that experience as most will want.
The music is alive and very catchy so listeners should be prepared for 75 minutes of constant "on the go" music. The musical and singing harmony of the group (and tempo of their performance)is really only appreciated by witnessing it in person but don't be surprised if you find yourself wanting to clap or tap in time with the music and then go out and buy another of their works.
