Les Yeux Noirs: "Live" (Harmonia Mundi)
Les Yeux Noirs, French for "the Black Eyes," takes its name from the title of a Gypsy tune made famous in the 1930s by Django Reinhardt. That selection gives you an indication of this sextet's musical pallet- a meld of klezmer, Gypsy music and jazz. If you missed the group in May at the Conga Room, "Live" gives you a sample of that experience. Songs tend to start moodily and slowly, before instruments merge with manic rhythms. 07/11/03
