THIS (www.klezmershack.com) is extremely "cool stuff" as they say. I have
always been moved by this music when ever I had the chance to hear it.
Thank you for this url! The only time I had ever heard it has been at
friends' functions I have attended on occasion. As a bass player and not
Jewish I always found myself at the point where THOUGHT: "well if I find
there are records and I buy and I listen to them I will start
incorportaing some of this into my jazz solos" and if I really liked it I
might start trying to play it in its pure form, and that might not only
appear silly but offend someone especially if I did it badly.

Cheers, Leo
