Retro Chicken

In a previous post I mentioned the ultra-hip Downtown Jewish music scene (aka John Zorn and company). Check out these killer jams - John Zorn’s quartet - filmed in Warsaw and featuring Joey Baron on drums.

Zorn has a record label - Tzadik - dedicated to releasing all sorts of cool “Jewish” music. Tzadik is the Hebrew word for righteous (though I once saw hype for the Tzadik label and they translated “tzadik” as “wise” - not sure how they could have made this mistake and if that changes the intent of the label). Like I mentioned earlier - the music on this label is everything from traditional grooves to guitar feedback weirdness - enjoy.
