Kroke which means Krakow in Yiddish are a four piece band from Krakow that play mostly Klezmer music but also some Sephardic stuff. Seventh Trip is their most recent album (8th album) and was released by Oriente in 2007. The album is not at all bad but it's nowhere near as good as their 2000 release - The Sounds of the Vanishing World. That album was more traditional than this one which attempts to fuse jazz and even rock in to the tracks, it's the kind of album that grows on you.

The album starts off with an arabic feeling with a bit of rock thrown in with the track Awakening before moving on to Papillon which is a very busy track, lots going on, then on to Canon which is pure Klezmer music before disappearing a bit for a few tracks which are a bit slow and depressing before coming back with some more jazzy tracks and finishing with another busy track "Seventh Trip"

It's not bad but I was a little disappointed and it doesn't stand up well in comparison to The Sounds of The Vanishing World or East meets West (with Nigel Kennedy)
