Especially if one of those individuals is also considered to be one of the most highly respected Dentists in Europe. Michel Rechtman is the central figure of this traditional Bluegrass group.

If you are familiar with Cajun Music, I am sure you&#8217;ll appreciate this eclectically fun mix. Michel is an accomplished Blues guitarist with a silky smooth almost baritone voice. Being of French origin, you might pick up a bit of his charming accent. I really appreciate the grass roots quality of this album especially considering where it has come from. Yes, Michel and his group are very talented souls indeed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/Misfits.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12793 aligncenter\" title=\"Misfits\" src=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/Misfits-560x372.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"372\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There is something very endearing about these tunes that could easily fit in to a Tennessee Williams screen play.<br \/>\nSo, who are Les Misfits ?<br \/>\nA patchwork- band with members from a variety of musical backgrounds.  These musicians meet on a bridge that links these neighboring musical  worlds: jazz standards, jazz musette, traditional music from the  Appalachians played by friends in the open air at sunset when the grass  slowly turns blue. No trace of nostalgia here. Every one puts their 2  cents in, seeking to steer the ever beloved and respected standards into  new spaces.<br \/>\n<a rel=\"attachment wp-att-12764\" href=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/2011\/01\/05\/bluegrass-group-misfits-dentist-have-common\/l_32ea3e9e5a40468483270610fac3a1d8\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12764\" title=\"l_32ea3e9e5a40468483270610fac3a1d8\" src=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/l_32ea3e9e5a40468483270610fac3a1d8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"467\" height=\"639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/rebuild\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/l_32ea3e9e5a40468483270610fac3a1d8.jpg 467w, https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/rebuild\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/l_32ea3e9e5a40468483270610fac3a1d8-219x300.jpg 219w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 467px) 100vw, 467px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nUpright Bass is covered by Bruno Morange.
