Re: DeDanaan's Andy Statman cover?

[S. Austen & B. Woods <acoustic...>]

DeDanaans' Klezmer Hornpipe track on 1/2 Set in Harlem indeed has special
guests Andy Statman on clarinet and David Steinberg on French horn. Not
sure about the Ballroom album, as I don't have a copy. BTW, Kevin Burkes'
new Solo Fiddle live CD has a Klezmer cut as well. It's not Leon Schwartz,
and he definitely lilts it in the Celtic style, but he sure plays it pretty
(in my opinion).
