GIPSY KINGS "the very best of...." cd, 2005
career stats:
studio albums.............13
live albums..................2
compilation albums.......6
singles.......................29
this one is a single disc budget version of their 2000 "volare!the very best of" double disc set...
the band are French, made up of brothers from two famillies who fled Spain during the Civil War there in the 1930s....
their Latino music is primarily pop and dance music in the Latin music scene....
i cannot understand a single word they sing in their songs, but its infectious,uplifting,toe-tapping stuff that just makes you feel good inside...
a lot of these songs would be recognisable to you guys, if only for the fact youve heard them as tv commercials/jingles...
but these guys are serious business in South America and Europe...
theyre multi-Grammy nominated, even won one a few years ago....
all up, a very good album that unlike anything else i own in my cd collection....
worst track on here for me is a medley of their songs, and the most interesting track is their Latino version of Eagles "hotel california",
nothing on here i dont like and plenty that i love!
