Broken Piano Changed Jewish Music Forever

Today we have the guest of guests, none other than Rabbi Yasi Green. You are the composer, hitmaker, and secret sauce behind half of our favorite Jewish song. >> Sometimes I'm lucky right away. Sometimes it can take I have a song that I finished. It took me 20 years. I was born in 1955, which was a little under 10 years after the Holocaust. Clalis was not singing. They cried. There was no happiness. There was one incredible artist around at the time. His name was Eigel. There was an old piano. One key is dead. One key is higher. One key is swarm. And I began with one finger to bang around. He says, you know, Yas, you're so musical. You never tried to to write a song. Don't be embarrassed. I turned around and I to play this this melody. I'm telling you. He jumped up from the chair. He ran over to me and so was born the song called Bama. You know that our our stars, our performers, when we see them, we see the back of their talis. You know what the kesh of MBD is? the real true essence. He's the first person that turned around and faced an audience with a microphone. These are the reasons why he's a trail. Most of what we have came from him.
