1.0 out of 5 stars This ought to be illegal!!! Can I give out negative stars??, September 16, 2004

By	W. E Wyatt "drwillie" (DFW, Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm a To-The-Core Diana Krall fan. While I knew this album wasn't her playing I thought I'd hear some new interpretations of her stuff. The selections are simply AWFUL; poor musicianship, out of tune, don't swing AT ALL, etc. Of course if you look at what this group has also done, such as "String Quartet Tribute to Nine Inch Nails", you realize these folks are just out to make a buck on other people's art without ANY of their own.

This is one of the worst music purchases I've ever made, (and I've made thousands). It's so bad it's funny but too painful to listen to more than once.

If you get a chance to listen to this bit of drivel, go ahead but under NO circumstances should you pay money for the privilege.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exellent music, December 22, 2003

This also might have been titled "The String Quartet Plays Standards in Gypsy Swing Style." Although there are no Steppahnne Garapelli's here, and it doesn't come too close to gypsy swing, but it has the flavour of it... it is nice and romantic and swings lightly(however you also need to invest in a Django Reingartd cd or two).
