Thoughts, anyone?

(Upon listening, that version of "The Victor" isn't the one I'm used to and doesn't
sound as good. The same might be true of the other one here with the same art.)

My thoughts are, it doesn’t belong in this thread.

I gotta say, I would've won a lottery before I would've guessed this lineup...

This album is out. I listened to it last night.

First impression - Yochi Briskman is great in many ways.

Listening to Boruch Levine so much recently, and then hearing this, you can really see the contrast between Doni Gross's more simplistic style and Briskman's elaborate music and transitions. Both are great, but each have their own very distinct style.

Song selection is more Chasidish, mostly like the Yingerlach, Shmueli Unger, Hershy Weinberger, Lipa type of albums, with just a handful or so songs from non-chasidish albums. (Two Shwekey songs, one Boruch Levine, one Uzi Bodner, two Joey Newcomb, one Benny Friedman.) There is also one whole set with "traditional" chasidish songs, and that is definitely more the vibe of the album.

Both Marcus and Hill are magnificent, though as a music connoisseur, I find that the mixing/mastering obscured part of the clear beauty of their voices behind the very music-forward mix. That's just my opinion, I'm sure most won't pick up on this.

Overall, first impression is very nice.

Yochi should make an album of just all the Project X transitions. Majestic.

Why is Shir3 only available on Apple music and not available for purchase on Amazon music?
Wouldn't mind using my No rush credits to buy the CD.

Or would even use my Amazon app to listen.

https://music.apple.com/us/album/shir-3/1549579470

Interesting that he would release it to apple and not Amazon.

אשר בחר בנו by דודי קאליש מיט קינדער was released this week.
It's available from https://mostlymusic.com/products/kalish?variant=38917734006935 but there is no brief preview of each track, just a behind the scenes glimpse video.
I could not find it on Spotify or Amazon Music.

I'm obsessed with Sruli Ginsberg's Oz Yiboka right now, and I'm listening on repeat. I explain why here.

It would have been nice if they included the lyrics of the entire song, not just the part they sung on the CD.

It's a PDF. It doesnt cost them any more.

My sentiments precisely, Watson.
