4th Ward Afro-Klezmer Orchestra
East Atlanta Passover Stomp
Imagine Fela, Miles Davis, Sun Ra, and the wildest Klezmer band you’re ever heard, all jamming together in the studio. That’s
something like the 4th Ward AKO. Led by Gold Sparkle Band trumpeter Roger Ruzow, the album features compostions by Roger and
Jeff, played by some of Atlanta’s best and most adventurous musicians.
