Another exhilarating CD of stop on a dime genre-smashing
courtesy of Koby Israelite, who jumps from Death Metal
and Jazz to Klezmer, Balkan and Gypsy music like a
chameleon on acid. This is music of great imagination,
filled with humor, virtuosic technique and fabulous detail.
Koby has matured since his first CD for Tzadik, and Mood
Swings is the work of a master. In the tradition of Naked
City and Mr. Bungle, Koby Israelite is forging a new
Jewish music with power, wit and an intense passion for life.
