FW: Klezmer Bluegrass Fusion

[Mark Melnick <mmelnick...>]

Gideon:

It was I who mentioned the Livers.  I have all their CD's -- at least the ones 
sold at major U.S. outlets -- and they do not seem to have recorded any 
klezmer-influenced bluegrass (or bluegrass-influenced klezmer) prior to 
"Industry and Thrift."  Given their overall creativity and eclecticism, 
however, I am not surprised that they pulled that one out of their hat.

Someone on the list mentioned the Bad Livers' Klezmer-Bluegrass cut on their
new disc.  I checked it out and it is excellent in their special irreverent
style.  Does anyone know if they have done other klezmer tunes?.....
