Modern Man

With the release of their third CD, Assisted Living, the musical trio known as Modern Man continues its assault on the out-moded idea that only those persons not yet manifesting symptoms of senile dementia should perform in public. If the sight of three seniors attempting a hip-hop song (Assisted Living) or transparently trying to get a fatwa issued on themselves for the sake of notoriety (Abdul, The Reluctant Martyr) doesnt bring up your lunch, you may well be Navy Seal material. Lest you take all this self-effacing humor at face value, Modern Man is actually a brilliant cross between Crosby, Stills & Nash and the Marx Brothers. David Buskin, Rob Carlson and George Wurzbach are celebrated singers and songwriters who have written for Judy Collins, Pat Benatar, Johnny Cash, etc, and they are "terrific instrumentalists with gorgeous voices and hilarious wits."
