Very cool! I like hearing this kind of stuff played on other instruments. I think some of the GJ musicians we love so much get short shrift as composers. Hearing their tunes played on instruments other than guitar strips away some of the technical dazzle and lets us appreciate their work in a different way.

(Now I can't remember if Tchan-Tchou actually composed "La Gitane"...who wants to be the first to embarrass me by revealing its actual origin?)

I don't want to steal your thunder so I'm not going to embed this, but this very tune was tackled by a small tamburitza combo, and they posted a video of it here:
