"Their 30th anniversary album doesn't show their full range - they were reworking Woody Guthrie when I last saw them - but the variety is still impressive, with brassy, jazz-influenced instrumentals and dance songs mixed against a dash of rebellion (the title track announces "happy heretics have no rabbi"), and finely sung ballads".

"The Klezmatics, founded 30 years ago, were one of the first bands of the Klezmer revival, and remain one of the best ... The interplay between Frank London's trumpet, Lorin Sklamberg's accordion and Lisa Gutkin's violin is as joyously melancholic as ever".

"The Klezmatics are modernity, but teetering through hints of tango drama, haltering waltz, millennial concerns and the biggest music ... They show that there is no contradiction in presenting both jaggedly hot songs of radical contemporary politics, and smoothly tearjerking laments steeped in ancient spirituality".
