It's been a really long time since Project X was released, or any other medley style album worth listening to, for that matter. That is where 'Shira Besimcha' by Yossi Fraenkel and Shloimy Zeiger comes into the picture.

Shira Besimcha is a vocally solid album with well-arranged music and harmonies that is reminiscent of the days when you would buy an album and could listen to it again and again and again. Yossi Fraenkel, who is well-known to the chasunah-hopper crowd, does a superb job singing all the latest Jewish music hits, all while adding his own vocal spin. He is accompanied up by a fantastic orchestra consisting of some of the greatest musicians in the field today. With completely updated musical and vocal arrangements, Shira Besimcha is an album that has a familiar sound but is yet very fresh to the ear.

It has been a long time since the release of a CD that will literally spin in your player until it destroys itself from wear.
