Originally formed at the Old Town School of Folk Music (in Chicago), ChickenFat Klezmer Orchestra doesn’t offer much more biographical information than that. That being said, “The Space Sessions” is a self-produced album that sounds as if it was recorded “live” in the recording studio. The vocal tracks are a bit muffled, but good musicianship abounds on the instrumentals (tracks 1,3, 5). Rebecca RuthLOS CENZONTLES WITH DAVID HIDALGO & TAJ MAHAL
