Jul 7, 2008 - The best is accordionist Ismail Butera - he smokes. He plays some times with Yale Strom and Hot Pstrami (I think HP is a better band, sorry).

evesicular Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I agree with you about Ismail naturally. As to HP, a chacun son gout.

evesicular Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - One thing about this video is the festival mics were hardly letting you hear the trumpet or trombone on the first set (including this tune). You mostly pick up that sound only as background until the second set. To hear the brass players better, see "Ot Azoy Neyt A Shnayder" or "Muzikalisher Tango" also in this series -- by then they had all the horns in the mix.

Jul 7, 2008 - No offense!
