"Babik Reinhardt's reunion with Romane, together with the irresistible talent of new-arrival Florin Niculescu on violin, made the New Quintette du Hot Club de France a genuine reference in French jazz. Their record, polished in Didier Lockwood's studio, was more than a tribute or a reference to the past: fifty years on, it brought right up to date the heritage that had given birth to their art. Long before the Gypsy Swing phenomenon, Babik Reinhardt, the son of Django, and Romane, one of the greatest disciples of the jazz guitar Maestro, created the New Quintette du Hot-Club de France; they also created a resolutely modern approach which stamped the pages of contemporary jazz with the heritage of the Master."
