Re: klezmer en buenos aires--another great album

[SamWeiss <SamWeiss...>]

I just clicked on their website, which matches up aesthetically with their 
sound... both of which are reminiscent of Brave Old World's "Royte 
Pomerantsn" CD -- judging from the site's 3 soundfiles (especially the 
first 2).  Ari, are these from the "Shtil" album you just wrote about, or 
from earlier work?

BTW, I found the Spanish version of the website much easier to understand 
than the English version :-)
