I don't really know much about Klezmer music-- this is my first experience with the genre. That said, I found this pretty enjoyable. Masada's debut record is a nice mix of slower and more frantic material. Oftentimes, two instruments (the saxophone and trumpet) will solo at the same time, making for some wild moments. What's especially impressive about Alef is that it is one of four albums recorded in one day (!!!) It drags in spots, but overall this is a great record.
