Bio / Background
There hasn't been anything quite like Meshugeneh Mambo in more than 40 years!
Yiddishe Cup is onto something different here: neo-Borscht Belt klezmer comedy.
That whole era of '50s Jewish humor is dying, and some of it should be saved.
Just as klezmer music has been revitalized, Meshugeneh Mambo reclaims Jewish ethnic humor. Move over white-bread, Seinfeld-style comedians. (Paging Ethnomusicology.)
Yiddishe Cup time-travels back to the days when tough Jews, wearing shiny shoes, sold shoes. Mickey Katz -- the dead rebbe of klezmer comedy -- walks the streets of Cleveland again, along with the Barton Brothers, Billy Hodes and Slim Gaillard.
George Robinson, of the New York Jewish Week, named Yiddishe Cup's previous album, Yiddfellas, one of the 13 best Jewish recordings of 1999. Yiddishe Cup has appeared throughout the United States.
Finally, here are some just-in takes on Meshugeneh Mambo.

like when Uncle Ricky & his buddies drink a few too many and jump on stage to replace the band at your wedding dance
