Dear Dan Kazez:
My foot is just fine, thank you. Again, with the name-calling. I'm
glad if my "lunacy" validates your "sanity".
Since you say you don't know what prompted my letter, but support Ari
anyway
(that makes a lot of sense) I will tell you:
Ari LIED about what was on my album. "There are no songs by partisans
of the Holocaust." There are two.
Ari insults survivors and their families (not to mention the 6 million):
"victim's songs with victim's pieties" and "there are no strong people
on this record". Ha! I really don't like the sound of those two
thoughtless outbursts. Sue me.
Ari makes a snide personal dig, presumably based on his perception of
my appearance; refers to me as a "Marlboro Man".
I ask you, sir, in all fairness, if you had made a record--would you not
look to see false information corrected if it were posted on a (global)
website? Just in the interests of truth and the fact that such false
information is misleading and unfair.
And, furthermore, although I am not aware of your "looks"--lets say
for argument's sake that you had a weight problem. Would you like to be
referred to as Pillsbury Doughboy or Michelin Man, for example? Does
something like that belong in a record review about Jewish music? What
do you think Ari was trying to communicate?
And, we did broach all this with Mr. Davidow in a private letter. His
response was evasive; he copped to none of the issues I raised and
instead proffered a screed about the "review process".
Take it easy.
