Tony Mitchell’s KISS OF THE GYPSY – Unfinished Business (2022)

KISS OF THE GYPSY are back! Initially planned as some bonus tracks for a new TONY MITCHELL solo album, the band is presenting the new CD “Unfinished Business“, just in time to celebrate the 30th Anniversary release of their Self-Titled major label debut on Atlantic Records.
While front man Tony Mitchell is now in the midst of a highly successful solo career, there was certainly Unfinished Business at hand with Kiss Of The Gypsy, and songs such as ‘Eye Of The Hurricane’, ‘Duty To Party’ and ‘Runaways’ sound like massive radio hits that fans of the first album will be over the moon for.
‘Sin City’ is another solid rocker of glorious proportions while ‘Time To Heal’ has a vibrant spiritual quality that is wondrous to behold. The concluding track ‘Wild Horses’ ‘is another standout with it’s thrilling “running wild, running free” lyrics rocking the listener into the stratosphere.

What started off as possible bonus tracks for Tony Mitchell’s forthcoming solo album, quickly turned into a full blown, long awaited Kiss Of The Gypsy album. 2022 is the 30th anniversary of the KOTG debut album and Mitchell was to include bonus tracks on his new album that he had written as KOTG to include for a special edition release.

Tony Mitchell released this under the KOTG moniker with his own name attached – Tony Mitchell’s KISS OF THE GYPSY – to differentiate it from the original KOTG, which had a vastly different line up.

Thirty years after the debut the time has come for new KISS OF THE GYPSY material. Musically some ideas go back to the early Nineties and the production is pleasantly old-school – think 1990-91 – with a current bright mastering.
There might be more stuff in the future… Hope we hear a lot more from Mitchell’s Kiss Of The Gypsy soon.
