Who is your favorite Israeli musician ?

[Muck DeFuslims]

I really like Yosef Karduner.
I think his melodies are beautiful.

If you're not familiar with his music, you can listen to a streaming mp3 of his Road Marks album at this address:

Hope you enjoy.

Yefim Bronfman.

Re:  "...I really like Yosef Karduner.

I agree...he's a true artist.
I often listen to his music.
For some reason I thought that he doesn't make his home in Israel.

[Allen-T]

Avishai Cohen at the moment.

[Ehud]

I really like Matti Kaspi and Schlomo Gronich.  They were part of a fantastic jazz/classical/rock group from the '70s.  Also, Yizchak Perlman is one of the greatest musicians alive.  I would have to go with Perlman.

Does anyone here know an Israeli band from the late 60's early 70's called The Churchills? Their original vinyl LP is worth a fortune, around $1500-$2000. They also recorded as Jericho Jones, I think. I have a great LP by a group called Shivat Zion-The New Chassidic Sound. It's from 1975 on Hed-Arzi label and it's a folk-rock type sound that I think is really good. I was planning to do a video about it in the near future.   

Here is an ebay auction result of the Churchills LP;

I might add that I think this LP is good, but very overrated. I have rarer Lps than this in the $500 value range that blow it away.

They also recorded as Jericho I believe.  They have three albums, I have them all in digital format.  They're quite good.  There are lots of good Israeli artists from the '70s such as Atmosphera, Arbaesra Octavot and  Zingale.  I have tons of old Israeli rock music. If anyone wants to trade, don't hesitate to contact me.

I dont like Israeli music...only some of the religious music...
American music is great !

[Ehud]

American music is the worst music made in the entire world!  OK, possibly with the exception of arab music.  The only good American music was R&B from the '60s, Jazz, and SOME classic rock from the '70s.

[Dexter]

Well...im like only hard rock (metallica for exemple)..I know non about other typs of music

[Ehud]

Metallica is awful.  There's much better heavy metal made all over the world, even in Israel!

You're just not listening to the right ones.  Of course I'm not talking about the garbage that comes on the radio and TV.   There are plenty of good Israeli bands, you just have to look around a bit to find them.

Metallica has always reminded me of when we were kids, we would put baseball cards on the forks of our bicycles so they made a clicking sound when they were hit with the spokes of the wheel. Clickety-Clack, clickety-clack, that's what that awful drummer in Metallica sounds like. I just listened to the August 16th 1972 recording of Space Truckin' by Deep Purple live in Osaka Japan, Ian Paice, need I say more? 

[BabylonianJew]

Ofra Haza she is the best!

[Dexter]

Led zeppelin is also nice.
I like the songs thet neomi shemer Z"L wrote, even she didn't seng them...

I know.  Metallica's drums are always too loud.

They used to be a good band though.

I am in my back yard drinking Becks and listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd right now

I love this obscure Skynyrd cut called "Railroad Song" on Nuthin' Fancy. I remember when the plane crash happened.

I was too young to remember the crash, but I've always loved the band.

Made in Japan is one of the best live albums EVER!

Firstly Ofra Haza died of AIDS so she is drek. I like Eyal Golan along with subliminal. I know subliminal is rap but its Israeli rap and he is pretty right wing. There are others as well and it's a better alternative to the american stuff especially since turning on the radio here makes rap noise come out of your speakers. Every station plays shvartza stuff.
