Originally released in 1998 on Triple Crown Records, KING DJANGO’S “Roots & Culture” brilliantly pairs musical and blood families in a titillating twist of traditional Hebrew folk, klezmer, reggae, ska, and dub. Recorded at the original Version City studios with King Django as head engineer, featuring members of the Stubborn All Stars, Skinnerbox, The Toasters, The Slackers, and the New York Ska Jazz Ensemble, this all-star cast laid down superb traditional Jamaicans rhythms through which luminaries like Klezmer mandolin/clarinet player Andy Statman and The Klezmatics own violinist Alicia Svigals resonate the sound of ancient and modern day Jewish music. These original tracks have been remixed and remastered, sounding better than every before! If that wasn’t enough, two bonus tracks have been added. Collaborators include Agent Jay, Dave Hillyard, Dave Hahn, Victor Rice, and Vic Ruggiero. ROOTS & CULTURE is the latest joint release between STUBBORN RECORDS and JUMP UP Records.
