Chico & the Gypsies

One other question

I am a big fan of "Chico & the Gypsies". Do you know if they are planning to tour the USA next year ? Have you listened to their new CD "Frredom" ? Great CD. Somewhat Different than their previous CDs. My favorite is their Live CD.

Hi DJ

So far there is no news about an upcoming US Tour for 2006, you may want to keep the below link in mind as this is where the band posts their Tour Information

Hey DJ:

A few tracks of their LIVE CD is on rotation. Bought it cause I'd never heard of that one track entitled Jerico. Finally got to see these guys perform in a free concert last May. Excellent! And even better that it was free! :-)) I just wish that one day they'll start to play more and more of their own songs instead of covering the Gipsy Kings music. I think their Freedom release rocks. Its not totally rumba flamenca as some gitan had mentioned but overall its a good CD with good songs. "Tu eres mi mujer" is my absolute favorite, Joseph Gauthier "Pepino" sings it beautifully!

Got a response today from Chico's management. They are on tour right now in Mexico, and once they are back in Europe, he will respond back regarding the DVD. I also asked him if they have any plans to tour the USA next year. God !! I hope so !!!
