Dec. 7th, 2023 01:25 pmFrank London, of Klezmatics fame, is one of my favorite musicians. In the mid-2000s, he had a band called Frank London's Klezmer Brass All-Stars and their album "Carnival Conspiracy" is still one of my favorite albums of all time. But they haven't released any music in over a decade. So imagine my surprise to get an email saying a new album is coming out in a few weeks!

I'm not clear on the chronology, but it kind of seems like maybe this is 15 year old music finally being released? The notes on the bandcamp page say Recorded 2008, Mixed 2023. There's also an unusual credit for guitar legend Yossi Piamenta, who passed away in 2015, suggesting an earlier recording time. I dunno, even if it's just repackaging outtakes from a past album, more FLKBA is a good thing in my book!
