Editorial Reviews

Goran Bregovia's music marries sounds of a gypsy brass band with traditional Bulgarian polyphonies, those of an electric guitar and traditional percussion with a curious rock accent...all against a background of a bedeviled string orchestra and deep sonorities of a male choir, creating music that our soul recognizes instinctively and the body greets with an irresistible urge to dance. Bregovia performs with a large ensemble of musicians. Sometimes up to 40-piece band and orchestra!. With his usual energy and talent, he invites us to his new musical cocktail "Alkohol: Slivovic (plumb Brandy) & Champagne", an exclusive concert of music made to dance, drink, and party. Traditionally music was played to accompany drinking. Wrasse. 2009. --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

If you like the mixture of the sound of Jewish weddings, polka buskers, tinny rock and roll and Spike Jones then you will love the energy and excitement of these guys. This is the sound of the 20th century Balkans crazy energetic fun with no place to go.

Goran Bregovic is one of the most well known modern musicians and composers of the Balkans and my personal favorite! His new album once again exceeds all expectations with its lively, unique rhythm! I highly recommend it!
