The long awaited debut album is almost here!

Presented by Sameach Music and produced by Avi Newmark, this has been one of the most anticipated albums in recent memory, featuring 12 tracks sure to satisfy all musical palettes.

A variety of talented artists team up to bring you this masterful musical production. Selections include compositions from such famed composers as Yitzy Waldner and Elimelech Blumstein, and relative newcomers like Meshulum Greenberger and Oriel Avraham. Arrangers range from Good ol’ Mona and Moshe Laufer to the always incredible Leib Yaakov Rigler and Avremi G, along with some great surprises from Ian Freitor, the album’s engineer.

The Friedman/Marcus families showcase some very strong talent with three compositions, including the title track, Taamu, composed by Shmuel Marcus, an incredible piece of music sure to take your breath away composed by Simche Friedman, and a Bentzi Marcus composition featuring a duet with 8th Day! Rabbi Manis Friedman, Benny’s father, collaborates with Lipa Schmeltzer to compose a Yiddish lyric that will at once force you to look inward, while causing your feet to move with the beat!

A special musical tribute was composed by Yitzy Spinner in memory of Izzy Taubenfeld, the founder of Sameach Music.

As an added bonus, the cover art and the CD jacket and all the corresponding art was all designed by the undisputed king of Jewish Music design, Sruly Meyer!

    Great voice. Looking forward to hearing the new CD. I wish he wouldn’t be walking in middle of the street. It doesn’t teach our children a good lesson.

  • Fascinated!

    I can’t stop listening to the promo video! I absolutely love every single song! The whole family is already singing the few words they know from each song! Can’t wait till it comes out! Great voice!

  • An Honest Critque

    I’m sorry, but there’s something lacking here that non-Jewish music has. Since the big breakout for Jewish music was in the 70’s the style for Jewish music (besides a select few) and Jewish singers has been stuck in that rut.

    C’mon-take risks and push it further. You’r best song is with your cousin from 8th day-now they take risks.

    You’ve got great talent but you need to stretch it further and push the boundaries for Jewish music. I don’t mean to make it inappropriate; I mean to make it more up-to-date and professional.

  • careful

    too bad about the street. unfortunately we have lost too many… let’s try to be good examples.

  • Bring Simcha to all in a safe way!

    Impressive!
    Although I think it’s important to comment
    the cover photo impressed me in the least bit, even disgusted me.

    Why is it cool to be walking amid moving traffic!?

  • ROAR!

    OK everybody go ahead and air out all the anger you have inside of you now. Pour out your wrath on the cover and the promo video ’cause when this album hits the streets your critques will fade away into oblivion.

    (did that sound abgry? sorry. but you see, no matter how hard you try to sound polite your anger comes shining through!)

  • i have no issue with the cover

    the problem with this music is that it sounds like all the other lubavitch music.
