    Chag Hanukkah sameach to Jewish friends.

    "I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."

    Happy Hanukkah, and blessings in these troubled times.
    Shalom.

    And many thanks to all the outstanding Jewish musicians and music scholars who have contributed not only to Mandolin Cafe but to the music of the world.

    It's been on my bucket list for years to visit Israel and we actually had the trip scheduled for the end of November. Obviously that didn't happen...but it will eventually, so keep the light on for us! Shalom Shalom.
