Viva La Música

Amazon.com Former touring singer for the Gipsy Kings Kiko Motos was seeking out the fresh Gypsy sound of tomorrow when he realized the sound he sought was right under his own nose in his son Juanito's flamenco-Gypsy band, Gipsyland. Kiko gave the quartet of twentysomething guitarists his experienced Gypsy vocals, and the young musicians gave Kiko their free vision of the Gypsy tradition. This exchange and the production talent of Mark Taylor and Brian Rawling, who'd aided in the success of Cher's comeback album, Believe, and Enrique Iglesias's single "Bailamos," made for this strong debut album of 12 original songs and one cover. The CD sings vivaciously with fertile musicianship and poppish energy that stays well within the boundaries of good taste. "Torito" uses Latin-jazz-style horns to spice up the flamenco flavor, while "Viva la Música" charges through in an anthemlike chorus over infectious dance-pop rhythms. "Olé Olá" hearkens back to the Gipsy Kings' "Djobi Djoba," jumping with a pulsating beat, swinging chorus, and vibrant percussive clapping. In short, anyone in love with the feel-good pop-flamenco of the Gipsy Kings will delight in Gipsyland's passionate, uplifting music. --Karen K. Hugg
