Title: Lenny Solomon
Post by: The One and Only Mo on August 27, 2009, 02:19:37 AM
Not too sure if any of you heard of him. Lenny Solomon is the founder of the Jewish band called Shlock Rock
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shlock_Rock   He's performed around the world over the last 25ish years and brought many people back to frumkeit with his music. My mother and I have known him since I was 3. He's an incredible musician and an exceptional human being. He currently resides in Beit Shemesh. Anyhow, he wrote a song a few years ago called (Ani Yehudi which is hebrew for I'm Jewish). I feel that there is so much animosity between the different sects of Judaism today, that we have to remember who our brothers and sisters are. The song is in Hebrew and it really gives off the impression of the importance of Achdus amongst Klal Yisroel. Remember, we need Moshiach now and the Torah says that we should 1) not hate another Jew in our heart 2) love a Jew like yourself 3) don't be quick to judge. I know I've said a lot of things that criticize non-religious Jews, but the point is Hashem created those neshamas as Yidden. Enjoy.

How bout Shwekey? Im Eshkochech is a great song, as is Kol Sasson.
