Nelson says he resents the suggestion "that we need to come back to our faith," as one fl minister put it.

 CD Review: Klezmatics / Brother Moses Smote the Water
It seems somewhat fitting that the first Klezmatics live CD (discounting their wonderful tracks on the original live "Fiddlers" album) should focus not on their previous work, but instead move, again, into new territory.
The fact that this project was initiated by New York's new Holocaust Museum (not coincidentally, one of the best venues for new Jewish music in the city) seems especially appropriate.
The rest of the album, except for a roaring "Ale Brider" is spirituals and gospel, with singing alternating between Sklamberg, Nelson, and Farmer.
