Best. Holiday. Album. Ever. November 30, 2008
Matthew J. Laurence (Gloucester, MA USA)
Simple as that - title says it all. This is the first album I play as the holiday season rolls in, and the last I play as it leaves. It even makes appearances year-round. It will make many more than three kings to dethrone this gem.
Have a very Gypsy Christmas December 15, 2005
tcbnyc (New York, NY USA)
On paper, the combination of Django Reinhardt-style gypsy jazz and Christmas Carols wouldn't seem to work, but this is a fantastic album. It's freewheeling yet tasteful, adventurous yet traditional and secular yet sacred. Highly recommended. Also one of those Christmas records that will please all yet offend none. It would be an enjoyable listen anytime of year. Django all the way!
Jazzy Christmas Tunes - Lots of Fun December 14, 2004

You get a whole new feel for some old standards like "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" or "Sleigh Ride". Imagine a gypsy violinist, a guitar, and an upbeat, swing feeling to the tunes. They really have a lilt and a zip to them.
Timeless Holiday Fare December 9, 2004

We purchased this CD two years ago, and it is now an anticipation-laden harbinger of the holiday season for us. I don't think it will ever grow old. The combination of humor, musicianship and spirit are classic.
An excellent Christmas CD December 5, 2003
Charles Seelig (Providence, RI)

Wonderful jazz licks by all three musicians with each playing off and with the others. There's a real sense of fun with the arrangements and a range of tunes mostly from the "modern" era of the past fifty years. One of the best I've heard this year.
