Our Take

Paul Shapiro's album "Essenin" is a whimsical blend of jazz, funk, and klezmer influences that will have you tapping your toes and scratching your head in equal measure. Shapiro, known for his eclectic style and boundary-pushing approach to music, delivers a set of tracks that are as unpredictable as they are catchy. From the infectious grooves of "Bagel Express" to the soulful strains of "Matzah Man," Shapiro showcases his versatility as a musician and his knack for blending genres with ease. The album's standout track, "Borscht Belt Boogie," is a rollicking romp through Eastern European folk music, with Shapiro's saxophone skills dazzling at every turn. Essenin is a sonic adventure that defies categorization, with Shapiro effortlessly blending elements of traditional Jewish music with modern jazz sensibilities. Whether you're a die-hard klezmer fan or just looking for something a little different to spice up your music collection, Essenin is sure to please. In the crowded landscape of contemporary jazz, Paul Shapiro stands out as a truly original voice. With Essenin, he cements his reputation as a musician who is unafraid to take risks and push the boundaries of convention. So sit back, relax, and let the sounds of Essenin wash over you – you won't be disappointed.
