Sympathique - 20th Anniversary Edition

FuegoMyEggo Absolutely not my normal taste in music in any way shape or form, but I respect this for what it is, and what it is, is amazing.

The scope of what these people are doing musically, the mastery of so many different styles is respectable enough by itself, but there's also the vocals, and they are perfect.

You'd never know the people singing all these different languages weren't singing in their native tongues, except for the songs sung in English.

I'm completely impressed and happy to own this. Favorite track: Sympathique (Je ne veux pas travailler).

intrudergreen I really hope they put out the 20th anniversary addition on vinyl. would be great to be able to play it on my record player.

about

20 years after the release of Pink Martini's seminal and iconic first album "Sympathique", it can now finally be heard in the way bandleader Thomas M. Lauderdale originally envisioned. Pink Martini's arrangement of Maurice Ravel's "Bolero" was a cornerstone of the original album plan, but the recording has been embroiled in a legal dispute with the Ravel estate for two decades. Now, finally in the public domain, this song, which remains an audience favorite at Pink Martini concerts, has been restored to its rightful place on this new version of "Sympathique" (track 9 to be exact!), and the album is finally complete as intended.
