I don't know how many of you are familiar with this band, but you should check it out. They're from France and they sing in a dialect of Spanish (their families fled from Spain during the Spanish Civil War). Their music incorporates elements of traditional Spanish Gypsy music, flamenco, and rhumba. Some good songs that I like are Un Amor, and Allegria.

I know them well (trendy 10years ago). Haven't heard of them for a while.Originally posted by Anonymouse I don't know how many of you are familiar with this band, but you should check it out.

If you like this kind of music, there is a band I should send you: "Bratsch".
It's a french band, with slave & tsigane influences. One singer of the band is armenian, some of the songs are armenian alsoComment

when i was little, my family would put on the gypsy kings at any gathering etc it was apart of everything, brings back good memories. We would play it on car trips up the coast, pool parties, birthdays etc etc
the music has a lot of depth, the melodies are very beautiful and emotional, the color in them is so dark sometimes, and at others its very vibrant, upbeat and happy.
overall they are great musicians and song writers, performers. I give them major kudos for there work throughout all these years that they have still been creating music.Comment

I agree, the gypsy kings are real cool! I just heard a new song from them that my friend from Universal sent me ... it is featuring Andrea Bocelli, it's simply amazing.
here is the pre order from Amazon as well...
