you'll recall the disclaimer at the top of the list. these aren't
necessarily Jewish musicians. they are "great Jewish rock stars." at his
peak, Andrew Dice Clay performed rock concert-style in arenas throughout
the country, and part of his act included singing rock songs with a band.
but really i include him in the sense of rock star-as-pop-culture-figure.
the list is not intended to be an endorsement of anyone. for all i know
some other of these msuicians were drug addicts, wife beaters or even
worse.
what's an MOT? pardon my ignorance.
