I don't usually post "Me, toos", but perhaps a confirming vote would be informative; as someone who has showcased (on the radio, in lectures and courses, and now on my CD) and written about Shlomo's music for several decades, I want to *enthusiastically* second Richard's first advisement re the R. SHLOMO CARLEBACH live album, which is also *my* favorite! Shlomo's in wonderfully mellow voice, plus the sound quality, esp. in re Shlomo vis-a-vis audience, is about as good as it gets in Shlomo's recordings. I certainly think DAYS ARE COMING is an excellent, spirits-soaring album as well--right up there. --Robert Cohen ---------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------+ Hosted by Shamash: The Jewish Network http://shamash.org A service of Hebrew College, which offers online courses and an online MA in Jewish Studies, http://hebrewcollege.edu/online/ * * FREE JEWISH LEARNING * * Shamash invites you to join MyJewishLearning.com, a comprehensive, objective, authoritative and interactive learning resource in all areas of Judaism.
