5.0 out of 5 stars what Chris said, and then some, June 30, 2006

holy cow. this package is a real treat. for $15 you get a full concert cd, plus a full FULL dvd, with them in concert, interviews with fans, documentary, and more.

and yes, they are jawdroppingly amazing. even moreso to actually get to watch them!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Taraf like you've never seen them before!, May 2, 2006

By	Chris (VICTORIA, BC Canada) - See all my reviews

What a fabulous CD!! Listening to a Taraf cd is one thing, but to actually see them perform is a transcendental experience. The jaw-dropping virtuosity and presence of the Taraf make this cd truly enchanting and a must have for any gypsy music fan.
Highly Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The True Gypsey Kings, January 11, 2007

By	Ian Whalley (Berlin, Germany) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is everything a music DVD should be: it leaves you with a complete sense of where this band have come from (deepest, poorest rural Romania); a feeling for the individual band members after hearing them talk in their own words (the one band member trying to remember the names of his nine children brings a smile to your face); the jaw-dropping musicianship; their life on the road (lost-looking at first to being cocky by the London gig); etc,etc......... But above all, it is the jaw-dropping musicianship. Travelling around the world with Taraf (with the help of this DVD) is highly recommended. The only down side is the celebrity endorsement by the omipresent Brad Pitt (nice, but the rest of the DVD is so damned good, you don't need it).
Well shot and edited, and with a bonus live CD - near perfect.
