Awesome Fingers Jun 19, 2002 Who would have thought that a nice boy named Rosenberg wouldn't be Jewish? (No relation to the Rosenberg Trio who are also quite good). Jimmy's family probably didn't make the best choice in changing their gypsy name to Rosenberg to hide from the Nazis during WWII... but you won't make any mistake in buying this recording. I've had to replace my copy twice so far for various reasons (I think I actually wore one copy out) and would do it again in a hearbeat. Don't throw your guitar down in despair, just try to play half as good as Jimmy and you'll be doing all right (and try to forget that he was almost 16 when he recorded this). These guys would definitely have Django smiling in Le Hot Club in the sky.

Jimmy Lives Dec 29, 2001 For those if you looking for more from Sinti, search for Jimmy Rosenberg. There are a few more CDs from him that are more or less available. One reads, "This item usually ships in 1 to 3 months." Maybe he switched to an Inner Mongolian label? It certainly is a wonder why he hasn't yet lived up to the hype he generated as a teenage jazz prodigy.

Sinti where are you? Nov 29, 2001 This album is one of the best examples of gypsy/jazz guitar playing I have ever heard. Jimmy Rosenberg has gold in his fingertips.It is too bad that he hasent put out another album. Jimmy where are you? we are all waiting to here whats next.I was not familiar with this style of music until a cousin gave me this album on tape. I haave since worn that tape out and cant wait to get it on c.d..Dont even stop to think about buying this album.......Just do it.It will be the best purchase you have made to date.

sinti with jimmy rosenberg Aug 27, 2001 This cd is a must for any musician especially guitar players who are into the style of django rheinhardt-but it is much more then that. The virtuosity of Jimmy Rosenberg at only age 16 is only believed when heard. Rosenburg is best gypsy guitarist alive. Listen to this if you want to hear someone take you to a new level of sound and guitar ability.
It's 2001 and still no new Sinti/Rosenberg! Aug 08, 2001 The reviews below nail it. The musical virtuosity, warmth, playfulness and otherworldly beauty of Sinti's recording are all here. This disc held tremendous promise to music fans everywhere that the spirit of Django lived on but it has been awfully quite ever since. Undoubtedly, Sony dropped them after they failed to become the next Gypsy Kings. Jimmy where are you!?!?!?!?! If you don't own it, and you have even the slightest interest, snap it up now!
