Hi.
I got a copy of KLEZAMIR's recording "Klezamir cooks for Tante...".
I really liked it - wanted to let you know. Some good traditional Klezmer
tunes - as well as a Klezmer/Jazzy "Bei Mir Bist Du Schein".
By far (from my warped Jewish a cappella mind) the best song IMHO is the
"Miami Rhumba" (last track). I really wish I understood Yiddish, but
even without understanding it all, a Klezmer band playing Rhumba with
Yiddish lyrics is GREAT! The vocal lead is great - and the flute licks
over the top are as good as any Latin/Afrocuban Mambo band I've heard.
I really enjoyed it.
