05. Just for You

06. Sky High

07. Peaches N' Crea

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sky High includes Deuter on every cut, and these two complement each other wonderfully. Govi retains his own unique expression throughout, and the second half, in particular, plays beautifully as a whole. For breezy guitar stylings with enough depth and strength to entice guitar aficionados while still retaining the light, airy feel of a balmy summer day, Sky High may become an often-played favorite in your collection.

Heart of a Gypsy 多情吉普赛

发行时间:1989

专辑曲目：

01. Danza Del Mango

02. Amber Waves

03. Gitana (Gypsy Woman)

04. Pied Piper

05. Summer Breeze

06. Gypsy Heart

07. Festiva'l

08. In Harmony

09. Moonlit Shadows

10. Gitanas (Gypsy Women)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Govi's latest recording, he heads south of the border and lands squarely in the heart of the Andes. But in true Gypsy form, he manages to invoke the flavors of other cultures and lands as he travels through the musical spaces on this breezy tour-de-force. The strong South American influence is, however, less in The Inti-Illimani vein than in the style that fellow-countryman Deuter has previously explored on a few cuts, and similarities between these two artists are apparent on at least two or three of the tracks on Heart of a Gypsy.

专辑介绍

这是Govi的第4张个人专辑。Govi在碟中选用了音色高雅的西班牙吉他，明亮清澈的钢弦吉他和富有情调的电吉他，在无忧无虑的热带敲击节奏的烘托下，轻快流畅的旋律从指尖流淌出来。

第一首《In Wonder》舒展广阔，轻松自然，而用皇牌型号法兰明高弹奏的第二首《Abundance》和第7首《VivaLaVida》热情奔放，欢快激昂。整张唱片洋溢着对生命的热爱和对生活的顿悟，使听众得到心灵的抚慰和灵魂的升华。

唱片着重音乐自身的整体效果而非音响效果。但是吉他声音也录得通透、清澈、传真和富有空气感，把乐意表现得细致入微、丝丝入扣。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[TECH NOTE: Govi's albums, both under the older label (Real Music) and current label (Higher Octave Music) are truly of 'audiophile' status. Even with my mini-bucks entry level hi-fi system, the recording/sonic qualities on these labels are (to me at least) at par with the other world-acclaimed audiophile record labels. The pristine tones/timbre (attack & decay) from Govi's various types of guitars are laid bare for your discerning ears. Absolutely brilliant!]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have you ever be transformed into a different time and place by music? Well, this album will take you to a wonderful place in your mind. I call it my dream vacation music. When I listen to this amazing artist play, I just want to be sitting on the sand, watching the waves crash down, while I drink my mai tai. Govi mixes sounds of Spain and the Carabian with utilizing guitars and wind instraments. If you like flameco, steel drums, flutes, and classical guitar styles, then you'll love this album.

Guitar Odyssey “吉他奥德赛”，它的灵感来自《奥德赛》，一部古希腊著名荷马史诗。

它描写了俄底修斯10年海上漂泊中最后40天的故事：俄底修斯历尽艰险最后到达斯刻里亚岛，受到国王的隆重接待。

《奥德赛》以海上冒险和家庭生活为中心，赞美了俄底修斯的不畏艰险和妻子佩涅洛佩的坚贞爱情。

《Guitar Odyssey》正是以吉他表达了来自海上的感触，描述了海上沿途的经历和所见所闻。

《Dolphin Escort》歌唱了阿里昂与海豚之间的深厚友情，曲子充满了两情相悦、相娱的韵味，我们仿佛看到了阿里昂和海豚在一起 缠绵嬉戏的情景。

《Guitar Odyssey》曲调热情、开朗而充满深情，歌颂了忠诚、智慧、勇敢的精神品质。表达了对友人、爱人、亲人以及家乡的深深眷念之情。

Govi sets the spirits soaring and the hips swaying on Guitar Odyssey, an intoxicating blend of guitars sweetened with breezy South American pan pipes and sensual rhythms. With a treasure chest full of tracks encompassing the high spirited 'Sails of Joy,' the soulful rhumba of 'Treasure Bay,' and the romantic tenderness of 'Your Lingering Touch,' Govi's virtuosity is showcased on Guitar Odyssey, a truly joyful adventure.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

专辑介绍：

《第七天堂》是一张轻快的弗拉门戈吉他音乐专辑，适合和亲友共进晚餐的音乐。这是Govi的第七张专辑，也是他个人在Higher Octave唱片公司的第二张专辑。在他的前两张专辑中：Guitar Odyssey 和Andalusian Nights，他轻快的音乐风格表露无遗。他丰富的音乐风格包括了夏威夷、新佛朗明哥、拉丁、吉普赛，配合上一点键盘及打击乐器。

此张专辑的第一首歌曲”消失在你之中”是由Govi和Nadama低音乐器手一起演奏。在此张专辑中，歌曲名说明了不同地理位置的曲风：「吉普赛天堂」、「哈瓦那的夕阳」和「地中海」。以爱情为主题的歌曲包括了「心的言语」、「云中漫步」和此专辑中的最后一首曲「爱情的翅膀」。「爱情的翅膀」是由Etherean唱片公司的音乐家Karunesh共同编曲的.

Tame even by Govi's standards, Seventh Heaven is a pleasant dinner-party assortment of lightweight, flamenco-tinged instrumentals for acoustic guitar and small ensemble. A capable player and an agreeable composer, Govi has always resided at the softer end of the nouveau (read: smooth) flamenco continuum, only occasionally striking the sort of sparks associated with more ambitious players such as Jesse Cook, Oscar Lopez, or Ottmar Liebert. Instead, Govi targets the easy-listening crowd, and, in that context, serves up a fitting assortment of light-on-the-ear tunes that feature modest Latin and Spanish accents. Polite and cleanly played, Seventh Heaven may be a bit too gentle for some listeners, though others will find it goes very nicely with a good book and a Chardonnay. If pretty, Anglicized guitar music with a more pronounced flamenco influence is your preference, you would do well to investigate the Johannes Linstead album, Kiss the Earth.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A refined collection of flamenco-styled classical guitar in Govi's familiar style. Seventh Heaven is an ideal soundtrack for sitting on the veranda, overlooking the coffee bean fields and sipping a fine dry wine -- or maybe just adding a little class to some re-heated Mexican food in your cramped apartment. The smooth, soft guitar work from this California-based musician has sold millions of albums and offers a perfect backdrop for a relaxing evening.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

专辑介绍：

这张专辑就像一曲颂歌，是他长期投身东方音乐的结晶，是他在印度居住九年后的第一部作品。然而，在音乐进行下去的时候，听众会感到随着音乐游历在许多各种不同的地点。

这张专辑中包括了充满热力的“marrakesh”，这是govi将许多外国乐器连串演奏的章节；在“road To Istanbul”中，起先出现的是五德琴与钢弦的演奏，而后是锡塔琴演奏的曲调。序言“call Of The East”中，govi融合了其早期的电子摇滚吉他风格和其后期钟爱的西班牙弗拉门科吉他的优美旋律的风格，并配上锡塔琴作为和谐的背景。他为研究民间的“carioca Cat”（以在一些低声调12弦线的末端发出刺耳的尖音而命名）和轻快的西班牙弗拉门科吉他的叮铃声“danza Del Corazon”走遍拉丁美洲。

尽管在他的音乐中充满了异域的旋律，govi的音乐的总体表现手法给人感觉都是能抚慰与激励人，至少是在精神上将你带入他居住了将近十年的天堂般的毛伊岛(在太平洋中北部,夏威夷群岛中的第二大岛)。

One of the most acclaimed composer/recording artists of new age and world music, Govi has grown and expanded his musical repertoire in leaps and bounds over the past 15 years since his debut in 1988. This latest offering brings his music to new realms of uplifting rhythms and captivating melodies. His silky guitar playing is deliciously spiced with musical flavors of the east--sitar, Greek bouzouki and Turkish oud, as well as Gypsy violin and gutsy bass. Once again, Govi proves his merit as one of the most acclaimed composer/artists of contemporary instrumental music in the last 15 years.

From a Turkish caravan to warm Hawaiian shores, Govi deeply lyrical guitarwork evokes vivid images that have touched millions worldwide. One of the most acclaimed and best-selling contemporary instrumental and ethnic fusion musicians, each of Govi previous albums have all reached the Top 10 on Billboard New Age chart and remain strong sellers well after street date. JEWEL BOX is sure to confirm Govi place as the genre leading artist. Featuring all new music, JEWEL BOX shines with his unique artistry and compelling songcraft and reveals one of Govi greatest treasures to date. Govis fascinating blend of polyrhythmic global grooves and lush electric and acoustic guitar melodies have played an integral role in the growth of new age and world music for over 15 years. On his fifth Higher Octive Music release, JEWEL BOX, Govi expands his musical horizons and compositions with keyboardist - composer Richard Rose. A new dimmension for fans old and new, enhancing his magical guitars and heavenly harmonies with the exotic sounds of Indian sitar, and Turkish Oud. This new album Jewel Box deeply touches the emotions and sends the spirit to new heights.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Govi's earlier albums are all fantastic; but I have been waiting years for him to plug in his guitar more often and to pick up the pace a little. He does that on Jewel Box, which has the unmistakeable sound of Govi with an added electric groove. I totally disagree with the music reviewer (above) who implies Jewel Box is a move by Govi towards the sound of Larry Carlton, etc. Yes, Jewel Box is different from Govi's earler albums, but as always he creates his own unique and beautiful style of guitar music. The nice thing about Jewel Box is that it enhances Govi's music collection, rather than just adding to it.

If you like Govi's earlier works, you will love Jewel Box too.....I promise!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jewel Box is the best CD of Govi's to date. I have listened to this CD many times and I'm still discovering new passages that are terrific. It's refreshing to hear such new music with Govi's trademark sound. The keyboardist(Richard Rose)really added new demension and strength into Jewel Box.The blending of guitars and ethnic instruments, along with the great keyboards, is truly an art.Jewel Box is a very sweet CD. I can't wait to listen to it again. Also looking forward to the next CD from the new team!!

Listening to Govi play his guitar, it's hard not to imagine yourself somewhere warm and exotic. He has a natural knack for creating music that has a strong sense of mood and place; it's very imagery rich with a note of romantic abandon. It takes a 'back to basics' approach for the guitarist, who had been moving in more of an ethnic direction with his last couple of albums. Here, he focuses on compositions that are rich and full of the simple joy of Govi's flamenco guitar melodies. It's one of his most appealing albums in years, reminding listeners of why they embraced his music in the first place - the sultry beauty and languid bliss of Govi playing that guitar against a breezy samba backdrop.
