There is a flood in the music world today, which is nothing but a good thing, because of the new accessibility of creating and accessing music. Let's take a trip back to the good old days of honest Jewish music where people were singing to sing and dancing because they couldn't not.

    Welcome to the first episode!!! We talk about Nachman Seltzer's heart-wrenching and uplifting Teardrop Revisited from his album Visions sung by that familiar voice from Destiny.

    Ep. 0 - Trailer!!!

    We talk about Jewish music from a Jewish perspective! I know. Crazy. When we put the Jewish music biz on the side, what are we left with? That raw holy of holies. The power of music is spiritually paramount. Let's dig up some of the greatest Jewish music soon-to-be classics and talk about the true meaning of this awesome force we have the opportunity to tap into.
