Herman Finkler sent me this message, and he asked me to
forward it to the list:

Beseder, that's what the latest Israeli rock music seem to
offer (as of the August 1994):
Shlomo Artzi (also my favourite, like your's, Bob):
1. "Yareah" (Moon)
2. "Laila lo shaket" (Night is not quiet)
3. "Tirkod" (Dance!)
Either first or the second ones is one of his latest releases.
About "Tirkod" not sure. (I enjoy all of them equally, however)
Yehudit Ravitz:
"Shem" (Name)
"Dereh Homshi" (Silk Road)
She had couple of newer ones, it seems to me, but I don't
remember the names.
Yehuda Poliker
"Koev oval pahot" (Hurts, but less)
OOOPs! I think this one was a hit around 1990-1991. Nu, az ma?
Give it a try anyway!
Someone on the news group was asking for sefardi/yemenite music.
Well, as far as I know, some songs in the Ethnix's
"Ata!" (Hey, you!)
Contained some oriental melodies. Of course, this is not an
authentic sefardi or yemenite music, but rather Oriental motives
incorporated into the modern rock. Sounds terrific (except of
a "Snoopy").
Of course, this list not even nearly complete.
Hey, haverim, out there..! If someone knows of something else
feel free to append. I myself would like to find out of something
new. (But don't offer Aviv Gefen :-) )
PS: If you happen to be in Eretz and go shop for a tapes in
Malha Kanyon, or I guess anywhere in Israel, watch out: you
might but a cassete with a tape of a different singer
inside :). That happened to me when I bought Aric Sinai's
"Evergreens", Part I. Inside it was a tape of some singeress.
Wouldn't say that I regretted, the only thing -- none of my
friends lnows what is the name of mysterious singeress.
