Music Reviews:
"This was an adventure for me. My friend Rob has put together an album (Fire Behind The Smoke) that is very surprising to me. I know he was tinkering with some ideas of his, but never had a chance to hear his heart and mind so clearly as in the album. Music of many genres and moods, great to just listen to in the quiet and in the party."
- Scott Cooper, San Diego CA
“I came across your MySpace page and I have fallen in love with your music. I can't put it into one category. It is reggae, it is soul, it is jazz, it is awesome. I am buying Fire Behind the Smoke, Rocket Ship and Listless for my iPod on iTunes. Do you play around Lexington? If so please let me know. I would love to come and watch you play. I am all about indie players. You are just an amazing artist.”
“I was just listening to you on my iPod today while I was outside and it is just so unique...what a great gift you have to give to the world…the man behind such music must be so fascinating.”
- Kristy, Georgetown KY
"I really like your songs. The imagery of your lyrics is awesome...at least for this old hippie it is. I'd love a copy of "Key to My Apartment"."
- Michael Freer, Grayling MI

We always enjoyed it when we went to them. Wish we were able to once again go back and we keep hoping to come visit. We miss a lot of them. I think every group has negative rumors and thats why its good to visit and see for your self. Glad you are enjoying them they are great people
Awesome. I can't say I know Hadassah, but I had a nice weekend in Skokie, although saw much more of Chicago than there. I remember a nice 1-1.5-mile walk from our hotel to a synagogue and also a trip to a clothing store as one of the groomsmen tried on a jacket.
U would have been more than welcome....we did an audience participation... I would have just insisted you JAM with us!!! Gut Shabbos Yom Haludet Samea Israel!!
