The quartet unreels a lively, joyous sound on its first compact disc

Vintage Guitar Magazine, USA

Call it a fancy dance step back in time. The Dutch band Polytour play old-days musette, jazz manouche, and chansons that take you on a waltz into years past.
Led by accordionist Jean Pierre Guiran and guitarist Jan de Jong, the quartet unreels a lively, joyous sound on their first compact disc. It's the perfect music for an evening beer at a cafe.
Songs on the album includes a bouncing cover of Django Reinhardt's "Djangology" and a sweet rendition of musetteers Joseph Colombo and Tony Murena's "L'Indifference." French chanson is represented by several songs by Georges Brassens, Charles Trenet, and Yves Montand. The disc closes with Guiran's original "Polytour" and de Jong's "Lucia."
