Actually, yes, I do. We used to have a CCM (contemporary Christian music) station here, not really "Christian rock" so much as "Christian top 40". They played some great stuff, but they had the same habit most stations do (regardless of the format) of playing the same songs over and over into the ground.

Uh ...... not so much..... Is there Jewish rock? I mean besides Kiss. You lost me on the Kiss thing, Adam.  As for your question -- there has been an attempt in Jewish prayer services to "modernize" the melodies and rhythms of some of our prayers -- more in a folk-song manner than in rock, but not in a way to turn it into a genre of music. And if Jews aren't trying to market "Jewish Rock" , there ain't nothin' to market!  ;D |

He listens to it all the time in his car, and it's really good. |

It's Stanley Eisen. I know Paul and Gene are both Jewish, and Criss is Italian, but does anyone here know Ace Frehley's ethnic orgin? I've been wondering about it. |
