Jack-Knife Gypsy is the second album from folk rock/country rock musician Paul Siebel.
Reception
Music critic Jim Worbois wrote in his Allmusic "The first record may have drawn listeners for the opportunity to hear Siebel originals of songs they knew from elsewhere. This record does not have that same kind of pull but is every bit as good."
