Sol The Carnival Performer

Sol's love of all forms of international music lead him to an early career as a traveling carnival barker in which his musical audience warm-ups became legendary. They combined Motown soul with traditional Jewish psalms wrapped in an amazingly developed stage presence. Carnival owner, Pitsy Schorsch remembers:

"I'll tell you one thing about Sol that very few people know today, as a singer and performer he had no peer. But as a barker, he stunk, and that was what he was paid to do, so I fired him."
