“One way to celebrate Django Rheinhardt’s 100th anniversary is to put out an album. Guitarist Ruby goes a bit further and not only gives us a fine outing of Gypsy jazz, but composed all the pieces himself. With help from Evan Price (violin), Doug Martin (rhythm guitar), Spencer Hoveskeland (bass), and guests David Lange and Frank Vignola, Ruby puts us in the spirit of Reinhardt without just recycling the old tunes. He then adds touches of his own that present a unique look at the style. Refreshing in approach, with masterful playing, the quartet distinguishes itself on this excellent release.”
