CD ReviewsMiddle Eastern Jazz fusion worldmusiclover | Bronx, NY United States | 01/03/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "I highly recommend this Israeli band Esta, whose technical jazz background give their middle eastern riffs a new and fresh sound. Earlier album is instrumental, later album has a woman singing with a wonderful, soulful Israeli voice. Songs are mainly sung in Hebrew, but a few in English. The main guitarist works in a variety of instruments including bagpipes, which relates to the "crossroads" connotation- obviously the roads stretch as far as Scotland. Kidding aside, the blend of sounds include traditional middle eastern instruments and rhythms fused with modern jazz/rock. They have other albums, but they're hard to find. They have a website at estamusic. ENJOY!"
