The Great King of Israel

Last night one of Oran's friends told me about the Israeli musician Zohar Argov.
She called him the "Great King of Israel" and told me how he was very popular in the 1960s and had a unique story of coming from nothing to achieving popular culture status and then blew it all and died young of a cocaine addiction. Now she says his son is a great musician too but also into drugs and following in the same foot steps. Oran agrees that the son is only using the father's name for money.

Here is a link to one of Argov's songs.

Eruption

Volcano: chicago music

The above is the myspace link to a band called Volcano. They're from Chicago and Josh, my brother-in-law told me about them recently. This video from You Tube for their song "Africa Just Wants to Have Fun" is pretty wacky. The lead singer pours milk down his underwear in the middle of the park. I think this will be an amazing show to see live.
