kaveret

Kaveret (Hebrew: כוורת‎, lit. "beehive"), also known as Poogy (after a nickname of band member Meir Fenigstein, a name chosen for their performances abroad), was an Israeli rock band, which operated originally from 1973 to 1976. The band is notable for representing Israel in the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest and for its often humorous songs and unique style of music. In Israel, Kaveret is widely considered a breakthrough band in Israeli rock and pop history.

Group members Danny Sanderson, Gidi Gov, Alon Oleartchik, Efraim Shamir and Meir Fenigstein met during their army service in the Nahal Entertainment Troupe (Hebrew: להקת הנח"ל‎, "Lehakat HaNahal"). Sanderson and Fenigstein joined the troupe in 1968, appearing in its 21st revue, the rest joining a year later. During their military service, Sanderson operated a civilian band called HaSchnizelim (Hebrew: השניצלים‎, lit. "The Schnitzels"), with a flexible line-up, which at times included Gov, Olearchik, Shamir and Fenigstein, as well as other band members, such as Eli Magen and David Sha'anan. The same group of people also participated in taping humorous skits which were aired in Galei Tzahal show MiMeno Elayich (Hebrew: ממנו אלייך‎, lit. "From Him to You"), which were named "Pinot Poogy" (Hebrew: פינות פוגי‎, lit. "Poogy's Bits").
