COLDPLAY UK Tour 2001 - Custom Framed Original Concert Ad 29x24cm 23mm black wood frame with white mat Glazed with plexiglassNot sure whats happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the better Urban Gypsy gets. Urban Gypsy stated simply is one of Marc Antoines best CDs to date.
Unfortunately, its not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just cant force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Urban Gypsy. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
These days its a very rare CD on which every single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one of those rare CDs.
Overall Urban Gypsy is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Jazz collection. Truly an outstanding Jazz CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.
While this entire album is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 2 - Quand Le Jazz Hip-Hop, track 10 - Paris Jam, and track 12 - Storytime.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Latin Quarter. This is a great track!
