  what a great idea.... to share with one another some of our own personal
picks for great recordings.  Obviously mine is not a deifinitive list, but
they are what i listen to most often lately.

  1) Noam Katz's "Rakia"-  get in the car, put the volume on 9, and start
driving-ANYWHERE!
  2) Craig Parks' "Teen Shabbat Jam"--  all your favorite hava nashira
melodies with craig's amazing arrangements. would you believe his band is
comprised of his youth group...WOW!
  3) Craig Taubman's "One Shabbat Morning" -  check out his "mi shebeirach."
my congregation is loving it.
  4) Danny Maseng's "Labor of Love"-  Danny's melodies are perfectly wed to
the liturgy.... and what a voice!
  5) Rick Recht's "Free to be the Jew in Me"-this groundbreaker is full of
new classics for the religious school.  and it's lots of fun on your
computer.

  i would love to know what everyone else is listening to lately.  thanks,
scott, for begginning this very usesful thread.
