A priest, a minister and a rabbi walk into a bar. The bartender looks up and says "is this some kind of joke?"
I remixed this one from a few years back - The classic "Chanukah Oh Chanukah". Gee... a Jewish song in a minor key, how unique. Following Talmudic tradition and law I recorded it using a dobro and ukulele as the lead instruments with Caribbean steel drums coming in to wrap up the number! Enjoy!

I do believe that's the first time I've felt like dancing to Jewish music. 
Very timely, and nicely done, thanks for posting that.

lol are you kidding they're all in minor! lol Actually in Talmudic tradition you wouldn't be allowd to play it on an instrument in synagogue 
Josh you'v egot to delve deeper than hava nagila. there's tons of hot klezmer / jewish music out there that is a dance-a-thon. you should see some of the orthodox jews dancing to that stuff. i am talking full somersaults and other crazy acrobatics!! |

It's super playing Gerald, we need MUCH more of that..
The minor mode influence on MY playing is noticeable (briefly) at 2:12 in this tune |
