In the vibrant Dutch klezmer/gipsy scene where bands like Amsterdam Klezmer Band, Kalio Gayo, Balcony Players and Klavan Gadjé provide the entertainment, seven piece band L'Chaim (Hebrew for "cheers") is now also claiming its place. The Delft based party orchestra has already been going at it since 2006 and with 'Animal Bazaar' presents its second long player. Even though klezmer definitely forms the foundation of L'Chaim's sound, 'Animal Bazaar' also offers influences from Turkey ('Iki Cihanda'), the Balkans, Argentina ('El Tango Del Camaleon') and France ('L'Estrade', 'Le Soleil'), with vocals sung in a mishmash of different languages (we recognized Turkish, Spanish, French, Latin, Persian, Dutch and Italian). In conclusion we would like to draw your attention to the beautiful artwork by Job van der Molen, reminding yours truly of the animated clip to Roger Glover's 'Love Is All' way back in the nineteen seventies.
