The Klezmatics
Rise Up
$16.99 (release date May 14)
The 2003 release of the (much delayed and finally here!) 2002 recording by Klezmatics is a milestone for them, a richly fulfilled collections of songs both beautiful and dangerous, a fitting observation and critique to the new world order of the 21st Century as well as one of the best new Jewish recordings to hit the street in a while.

The record blurb:
By rooting their music in the ancient modes and melodies of Jewish music and then expanding in contemporary directions, The Klezmatics produce art that is resonant with tradition and yet unbound by it. Rise Up, their first non-collaborative release in five years, continues the sonic journey begun on classic albums like Jews With Horns and The Well. From the freewheeling to the forlorn, Rise Up reinvents klezmer as only the acclaimed Klezmatics can. Produced by Ben Wisch.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
