5.0 out of 5 stars Wild, exuberant, sexy and smooth!, September 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Blow "Besir" Blow! (Audio CD)

Immediately evokes scenes form Kusturica's masterpiece "UNDERGROUND". As a matter of fact, this is the best substitute for the film's original soundtrack. The music is played with such abandon and gusto, that you can't simply stand still and not start dancing. Forget all the apprehentions you may have about brass music. This muisc Romska Orijentalna muzika(Oriental Rom(Gypsy) Music, and is exuberant, smooth and very sexy at the same time with almost a gliding undertone to it. "IZRAEL ORIJENT" is actually one of the wildest versions of "Hava Nagila" ever recorded. If you're a lover of the Balkan roma music, this is a must have!

This review is from: Blow "Besir" Blow! (Audio CD)

This album blew my mind. I recomend it highly to all lovers of Balkan music. I could just imagine my self sitting in a serbian 'kafana', sipping on 'sljivovica' and returning home early hours in the morning, being followed by a Gypsy brass band, waking up the neighbourhood. This kind of music just makes me want to get married or dance on the table!!! Now I know where Bregovic gets his ideas for music. Like I said, if you like Balkan music, this CD will grow on you the moment you play it...

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best Yugoslav Gypsy Brass music ever recorded!, January 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Blow "Besir" Blow! (Audio CD)

After having listened to a great deal of Yugoslav brass music, I can only say that Blow Besir Blow captures the true essence of this wonderful music. Only being in a "Kafana" (bar) in Serbia drinking and dancing to live gypsy musicians tops this album. A must have for anyone from Yugoslavia or a fan of gypsy music!
