This is an incredibly fresh album for the 20-year-old band the Gipsy Kings. Since the release of the hit “Bandoleo” in 1987, the guys have sold about 14 million albums worldwide. For this recording, they brought in a new sax, trumpet, trombone, accordion, dudoc, bass, and extra percussion, in addition to eight core members. -PeteCibelle
