Yiddish version was a "hit" for Seymour Rechtziet. 
We carry  a wonderful CD by Yakob Sandler called "Yiddish Tanz Music' that 
features Misirlou in Yiddish...as well as other songs translated into Yiddish 
for "you dancing pleasure' such as "Ramona,' "Anniversary Song," the Italian 
song "Il Mondo" (big hit by Englebert Humperdink) is translated as "Mein 
Mame".
Great CD if you are looking for Tangos!
