A highlight of recent Staff Concerts has been the fine MCing of the inimitable Michael Wex. Wex, whose lectures on Yiddish language and Yiddish life are perennial KlezKamp highlights, is the author of the best-selling "Born to Kvetch" and "Just Say Nu!". Both books were based on material largely presented and refined at KlezKamp through the years.

Here, however, we see the inner country-singer of Michael Wex, singing his unique rendition of his old-country/western composition, "The Kosher Part of Me" at the 2004 Staff Concert.

He is backed by Pete Sokolow on piano, David Licht on drums, and Mark Rubin on bass.
