The Wall Street Journal online edition, with Mark Myers (online.wsj.com) Thursday 12/8 featured "A Very Gypsy Christmas" as one of the five best New Christmas CDs this year. The CD by La Pompe Attack features Doug Munro on solo guitar, Ernie Pugliese on rhythm guitar, Michael Goetz on bass and special guests; Cyrille Aimee on vocals, Ken Peplowski on clarinet and Howie Bujese on violin. "A Very Gypsy Christmas" is avail at www.djangobooks.com.

IMHO, anything that gets this genre out to a wider audience is a good thing. I've been on this forum for a number of years. You can check out La Pompe Attack by searching that on youtube, we are less than a year young and play in the NY metro area. I also back up Shepp of Ameranouche frequently when he's in the Delaware Valley. Maybe you've heard of him/them since you are in NE.

Sorry Kermitt, wrong geographical area!

Thx for the best wishes. It was also reviewed in Just Jazz Guitar and a number of other places as well. I sense that your comments may have had a political undercurrent. But it is a mass audience media vehicle and hopefully gets Gypsy Jazz to a broader audience. That helps everyone IMHO.
