Argentinian Hernán Oliva was surely influenced by Stephane Grappelli's work with Django Reinhardt--but he puts a slightly updated spin on such Hot Club standards as El Scheik (Sheik of Araby), Exactamente como tu, Rio Swannee, and Chinaboy (Muchacho chino). Oliva played with Ahmed Ratip and Cotton Pickers of Buenos Aires in the 1940s, which is reason enough for me to love him. The music on this album just sealed the deal.
