Anyone who has been following Jewish music knows of George Robinson's reviews in the Jewish Week and elsewhere. He has a knowledge and a breadth of interest that make everything he writes worth reading. Now, we are freed from the constraints of what print publications deem timely to put online. As of the first minutes of this morning, the first day of the secular year 2009, we welcome a brand new blog, Shirim Khadashim—New Jewish Songs.

The blog opens with a post about "why" a new Jewish blog, now, and teases us with George's 10-best lists from 2006 and 2007. More to come. Indeed.

Welcome to the KlezmerShack blog roll, George (and to the blog rolls of all who are interested in Jewish music)!
