Re: Question: Modzitz cd

[Rachel Heckert <heckertkrs...>]

Hi Dennis and list,

CD's I don't know about, but I have two cassette tapes which are not
schmaltzed up and don't have a rock beat behind.  (When "Shabbos in
Modzitz" orchestrated by Yisroel Lamm came out, I rushed it home to play,
and then practically cried- who ever heard of a Modzitzer nigun with a
*rock* beat behind it?  If I want rock I'll listen to Ringo Starr.)  They
might have been remade for CD.

Modzitzer Favorites Vol. 2 - Neginah Records NRS 1204  (Ben Zion Shenker)

The Best of Modzitz - Sung by Ben Zion Shenker - Neginah CNRS 1207

Or you can drop by my cousin's house on Shabbos.  Her husband heard the
nigunim at Modzitz in Williamsburg in the old days, and he's a real baal
m'nagen.

Rock is rock and Modzitz is Modzitz.  To every thing there is a
season.....  But please, not in the same cut!  :-)
