 4th Ward Afro Klezmer Orchestra
 Abdul the Rabbi
 Review by Gary Hill
Perhaps this doesn’t fit under the heading of progressive rock, but personally, I’ve always felt that music that bends genre and combines things normally not combined is progressive. So, that’s where I’m landing this. It’s a crazy kind of album that combines many of the sounds one would expect based on the name of the group and the title of the album. Klezmer music, jazz and rock are all combined here, but other things (from space rock to surf music) also show up in the mix. It’s definitely creative and unique. I actually like it quite a bit.
