Lagren like early Ernie Ranglin - Reviewed on 2008-04-11

Exceptional mastery of guitar jazz expressions. Ought to be
more exposed to the American Jazz public. Great construction
of fluid ideas and scorching phrases.
He brings a refreshing taste to the fretboard sice Farlow, Ranglin,
Montgomery ans Martino.

I've had this DVD for several years now. I've watched it countless times, and now and then I attempt to play along. I still can't believe how good it is. If you have any interest in Gypsy jazz, buy this. I don't recommend this to my friends, I buy them copies just in case they don't trust my judgement. Everybody I know who has seen it has been blown away. It is the crown jewel of my Gypsy jazz collection.

Very nicely presented. Musicians are all top notch guitarists and some extremely enjoyable music if you like gypsy jaz style. Hard to find anything better in this style.

Worth every penny. A must if you like gypsy guitars just a bit. Big concert with the well known players, great interplay. Lot of fun. Great recording

I was at Montreux when the Gypsy Project played there i think in 2002 when it was still a new concept (for modern jazz) for performing and the format with the circle of players new as well with close to the same line up of players as on this DVD a couple of years before this DVD was made, and performed, and though nothing like seeing them live and feeling and experiencing the energy and the dynamics and the sound of hearing them live (and the freshness of the material) and when the concept and the group and the associations were new they maintain the momentum here in the DVD of that earlier concert in Montreux with a few changes in the players and this DVD has made it to some of the file sharing sites as well and with good reason as it is very exiciting, interesting music performed maybe better than the composers of the music did at the time of composing it and for those certain of the difficulty of playing the guitar at this level is very heart warming indeed to see such talent prove and reprove itself from beginning to end of the concert. Highly recommended!!!!!!
