5.0 out of 5 stars A great, great album!, November 22, 2001

The Klezmatics are the best klezmer band working today. While amazingly fresh and contemporary in their musical borrowings and instrumental sound (acid jazz, surf guitar, ska rhythms), their music is undisputably pure klezmer. The melodies are infectious and memorable, and there's plenty of musical risk-taking to make your ears prick up again and again (Frank London's use of a ragged octagenarian chorus is especially novel). Pick up some Klezmatics discs, and, if you like them, consider giving Hasidic New Wave a shot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific!, July 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Jews With Horns (Audio CD)

This is my favorite album from my favorite klezmer band. Better than anyone else, they combine new forms with old. Moxy Fruvous fans get a treat on "Man With a Hat," a fabulous and exciting number. This is a wonderful album. Enjoy!

This CD appealed to everyone in my family, pre-teens, teens, and adults - quite a feat for our varied tastes. There are lively, toe-tapping songs, and thoughtful instrumentals. All combine to create a terrific album and one of those rare cd's that we liked almost every song.
