Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: O.M.G. Comment: Whoever said this music has no soul needs to find a therapist. Fast. Stunning music, full of life and humor, fizz and ginger. Soak it up, this is what music and life is supposed to be about. Play while you're cooking and hold onto your hat. Customer Rating: Summary: Hellecaster Goes Gypsy Comment: If you know John Jorgensen from the Hellecasters and other music he has made, you know he is excellent on an ax. And often a gypsy jazz group is only as good as the lead player... SO buy this album with no hesitation. It may not be the classics of the genre but it is just plain great. So buy it! And enjoy!! Customer Rating: Summary: Really really great Comment: Great hum-able melodies, great production, great playing. The guy's an amazing musician. Not only is he one of the best guitar players in the world, he's no slouch at clarinet and saxophone too. Not to mention writer, engineer, producer, and mixer. I don't know why he bothers to hire other musicians. Maybe he just gets lonely. If you like upbeat, melodic, feel-good gypsy jazz music, you can do no wrong with this album. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Django jazz interpretations Comment: Good Stuff! An excellent collection of original and classic gypsy jazz tunes, artfully performed by Jorgenson. I recommend it as an introduction to the virtuosity of John Jorgenson and the genius of Django Reinhardt. Customer Rating: Summary: Django lives Comment: The is a virtuostic swinging performance. The guitar playing is hot and the clarinet is fine. This is old time hot club playing - so fine. I here he is even better live!!! More Reviews
