- This 14-track live CD from Romanian band Taraf de Haidouks features contributions from Gypsy virtuoso musicians of Macedonia (Kotani Orkestar Brass Band), Bulgaria (clarinet palyer Filip Simeonov), and Turkey (percussionist Tarik Tuysuzoglu).
- Romanian musicians of Roma (formerly "gypsy") culture, Taraf de Haidouks are a prolific outpost of a vibrant strain of Eastern European musical culture. Originally released in 2001, BAND OF GYPSIES is one of the group's most popular releases. A live album consisting of 14 tracks from throughout their career, BAND OF GYPSIES is what used to be known in jazz circles as a cutting session: each player is goading the next into ever-faster and more florid soloing and more delirious tempos. Though this is nominally dance music, a dancer would need the constitution of a bull to keep up.
Professional Reviews The Wire (10/01, p.74) - "...This is rock'n'roll as it should be..."
CMJ (7/30/01, p.22) - "...A mad meeting at the crossroads of Roma culture..."
JazzTimes (12/01, p.118) - "...A live recording which captures the sometimes over-the-top pleasure of awaiting release when they take a stage - or show up to play a wedding..."
Mojo (Publisher) (7/01, p.106) - "...The most fun you can have with your world-music clothes on..."
