12/11/2007 Dig Up The Roots
On the 7th day of the Festival of Lights we played some swinging music - mostly recorded in New York, but from the European and Russian Jewish diaspora. Wonderful melting pot sounds with the likes of the Merna Claire Barry - The Barry Sisters; Dave Tarras and The Yiddish Swingtette and the balistic clairinet of Naftule Brandwein.
