The best one in this album is the instrumental Chassidisco Fever, starting of like a classic piece of music, going into a Cerrone beat, with lots of Costandinos violins, brass instruments and a haunting beat, and a guitar solo as if Brian May was on it. Disco from Israel? In a John Travolta SNF pose... Who'd ever guessed...

Shma Israel is like a better Blondie song in their early days.
Interesting album !
