[HANASHIR:11556] CD Re-Release: Tov Lanu Lashir!

[Joshua Miller <jmiller...>]

Hey Hava Nashira List,

It has been just over three years since the big launch of "Shir L'Yom 
Chadash", the Camp Swig / Camp Newman CD that I had the privilege of 
working on, and about two years since the release of "Shir Milibeinu", Camp 
Swig's second recording (originally released LP in 1984)...

Now I am excited to share that the 1975 Camp Swig classic "Tov Lanu Lashir" 
has just been re-released on CD, completing the three-CD series of Camp 
Swig music through the decades! For those who haven't heard these 
recordings, they include 21 tracks of great tunes being sung by campers and 
their star-studded music staff back in 1975 which included Debbie Friedman, 
Debbie Pinto (still songleading in CA), Reuven Firestone (now an HUC Prof 
in LA), Neil Comess Daniels (now a songleading Rabbi in Santa Monica, CA), 
Jason Gwasdoff (now a songleading Rabbi in Stockton, CA), and others!

Anyhow, I think this is a really great recording to add to your collection, 
and it includes some fun melodies that aren't being sung much these days 
but should be! The other good reason to pick it up is that all proceeds go 
back into the music program at UAHC Camps Swig and Newman. Here's the link 
to learn, listen, and get a copy of this CD, and the others in the series 
(the complete box set now available too):
