Any Greek Post WWII recordings in Ladino?

[Joel Bresler <jbresler...>]

Chevre:

Please help me respond to an inquiry from the Holocaust Museum. Does anyone 
know of any songs in Ladino by (or about the experience of) Greek Jewish 
Displaced Persons post-WWII?  A difficult inquiry, to be sure, but if 
anyone would know this group would!

Related question: has anyone ever been able to obtain a copy of:

 >Daniel Akiva, "Siniza i Fumo, in memoriam of the Jews of Salonika", Texts by
 >Avner Perez, CD. Available from the Maale Adumim Institute for the
 >documentation of Judeo-Spanish and its culture, Maale Adumim, Israel. 65 
NIS.

I have tried for sporadically for years, to no avail. I assume it deals 
with Holocaust themes and that at least some of the songs are in Ladino, 
but have never been able to confirm.

Yet another related note: I am told by the producer that the latest "Ballad 
of Mauthausen" CD has been released by PLÄNE RECORDS. No other details yet 
available. A quick peek at http://www.plaene-records.de/ did not reveal any 
more information.

Thanks!

Joel
