Plays The Music Of Mickey Katz Digital MP3 Album

Don Byron, whose 1991 solo debut album Tuskegee Experiments was ranked among the year's top jazz recordings, returned in 1993 with The Music of Mickey Katz, the celebrated klezmer bandleader and Yiddish humorist. The tunes on Don Byron Plays the Music of Mickey Katz were drawn from Katz’s recorded legacy, which Byron studied, transcribed off the old recordings, and adapted for a band of jazz musicians that he assembled and subsequently immersed in the fine stylistic points of the genre.
