Radio@Netscape needs about 30 seconds to initialise before the music begins.
The sound quality will depend upon your equipment and, of course, whether the audio facility in your computer is switched on.
The Netscape player includes a "buy CD" button.
Many of the pieces listed below do not sound anything like traditional klezmer, i.e. nineteenth-to-mid-twentieth-century Jewish dance music as played on clarinet, violin, piano accordion and drum. Probably they all have a Jewish theme although this might not always be immediately apparent.
During the past year or so there seem to have been fewer new tracks played and more repeats of earlier
works.
