this is what a martini sounds like

I highly recommend this band - Pink Martini. They've got a Breakfast at Tiffany's-lounge lizard-film noir-Havana bar sound. It's a twelve-piece band complete with piano, brass, string section, drums, xylophones, and harp, among others things. If you are at all depressed or tired, this music will cheer you up and make you want to take salsa lessons.

P.S. If someone can tell me what kind of camera the bandleader is using, I'd be most grateful. It looks like an old bellows-type camera, but it takes polaroids.
