R202 huh? Are you related to that wonderful 'droid, R2D2??? Do you have a 
real name? 
        On a more serious thought, this list supposedly caters to those 
who wish to talk about Jewish music in general, including cantorial, 
Klezmer, etc. That is, when certain obnoxious  semi-literate people of 
dubious lineage don't clutter it up with inane, vulgar drivel about 
certain rock groups. Hint, Hint!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
        In any case, since you are interested in Klezmer,I wish to 
recommend my own band, Machaya Klezmer Band, in the Washington, 
DC/Northern Virginia/Baltimore area. We now have two recordings out of 
straight-ahead, old-fashioned Klezmer; no rock, no Yiddish folk songs, and 
NO HAVA NAGILA!! Just very authentic, well-presented Klezmer. Our recordings 
can be had from the Workman's Circle catalogue, Hatikva Music in Los 
Angeles, or from us. Feel free to e-mail me privately for the snail-mail 
address. I wish also to recommend a favulous recording which is not in 
any catalogue: It is from Kurt Bjorling's (now with Brave Old World) Chicago 
Klezmer Ensemble and is available from him: Muziker (at) aol(dot)com(dot) Happy 
listening.
