Franz Kafka wrote that the Messiah will only come when he is no longer needed. Joe (Yosl) Kurland of the Wholesale Klezmer Band has composed a rousing Yiddish song turning that idea into a joyous invitation to take part in making the world a better place.
You'll find Kafka's Paradox and much much more on this fourth album from the Wholesale Klezmer Band.

“Across America there are hundreds of community-based and regionally based klezmer bands, but few if any pull off the technical demands of klezmer and Yiddish music with such apparent ease as the Wholesale Klezmer Band. ”
