RE: Theft/inherent Jewish musical soul



 If "White Christmas" is to be  considered Jewish,  as has been stated
by Steven Singer  and Ari in previous postings, then so is
"Over The Rainbow".   And so are any of the 36 (double khay) songs
written for Elvis by Ben Wienstein, including  the unforgettable "Do The
Clam" -- issues of <kashrut> notwithstanding.

Don';t stop there. What about all the Elvis songs written by Leiber and
Stoller, and Aaron Schroeder?  And, of course, as Peter Guralnick
established in Last Train to Memphis, his excellent bio of Presley, Elvis
was a shabbes goy.
