Crooning Jazzy Sultry Musique De Cafe

Putumayo presents another well-crafted collection of tunes evoking the mood of a particular place, in this case the much-romanticized street-side French cafe. An interesting aspect of this compilation is that Putumayo did their research and went for authenticity rather than an American idealization of what many would ANTICIPATE hearing at a French cafe. (The solo accordion pieces ain't here, folks.) You'll hear authentic French artists performing their best chops, not something Disney-esque or "Rugrats in Paris"-like. The result is a breezy, easy to listen to, largely club-jazz album that may make one want to whip out a hard baguette to gnaw on.

Great CD

Great mix of french classics. Good for relaxing or a dinner party!

Excellent!

This is a really lovely collection of Frenchy music--you really do feel transported to a cafe somewhere in France. I love it!
