Surfin' Sephardi

I'm working in a coffee shop this morning, and they're piping in some odd smooth-jazz/Muzak version of "Good Vibrations," and a clarinet has the melody, and darned if it doesn't make the song into a convincing klezmer hora/freilach pairing. Brian Wilson is G—d!

Interesting you mention this, as Mike Love (when with beard) has always reminded me of a greedy, untalented Menachem Mendel Schneerson.

I just heard that very same arrangement at a restaurant in Philadelpha!
