Our Take

If you've ever found yourself yearning for the days of flapper dresses, Ziegfeld Follies, and bootleg gin, then Gottlieb Wallisch's latest offering, "20th Century Foxtrots Vol. 5 - Switzerland," is just the vintage swing you've been waiting for.

Switzerland might not be the first country that springs to mind when you think of foxtrot music, but Wallisch effortlessly transports us to a smoky jazz club in Zurich, circa 1925. From the moment the needle hits the groove, you're transported back in time to the era of Gatsby-esque decadence and debauchery.

Wallisch's piano playing is nothing short of enchanting, with each note cascading like champagne bubbles against a backdrop of syncopated rhythms and sultry horn sections. Tracks like "Alp's Serenade" and "Chocolate Cha-Cha" are sure to get even the most reluctant toe tapping.

The album is a love letter to a bygone era, a nostalgic reverie that reminds us of the enduring allure of the foxtrot. So slip on your dancing shoes, pour yourself a stiff drink, and let Gottlieb Wallisch whisk you away to a time when the music was hot, the dancing was hotter, and life was one long, glamorous party. Trust us, you won't want to leave the dance floor.
