Uzi Kinrot/Sea Gull

'Uzi Kinrot' takes its name from guitarists Uri Kinrot and Uzi Feinerman of Boom Pam, pioneers of today's resurgence in Middle Eastern surf rock. Ray Bar-Tour riffs like a Klezmer-playing Dick Dale over a Balkan sousaphone bass lines and snappy drum rhythms. Towards the end, Yemen Yehudith adds a special touch of traditional wailing, raising the excitement by another notch. On 'Sea Gull', Les Dynamites pay tribute to Greek-Israeli guitarist and singer, Aris San, credited for being among the first to play the electric guitar like the six-stringed Greek bouzouki, and spreading the popularity of Greek and Mizrahi music.
