Joseph Moskowitz

[Mika & Frank <mikafrnk...>]

Hello All,

I have recently found out while working on my family tree, that Joseph
Moskowitz the Cymbalist was my Grandfather's uncle. I did my research on
the web and found out about the CD that came out in 1996, and about the
restaurant that he used to own on the Lower East side of NYC "Moskowitz
and Lupowitz".
I was wondering if there is anybody on the list that can direct me
towards any more information about his music, recordings, his life, his
family (?).  My aunt in Israel claims that he married 5 or 6 times (!)
and that the song "Joseph, Joseph" by the Andrews Sisters was written
about him.

I hope that this is not inappropriate to post a question of this nature
on the list. If so, please respond privately.

Thanks in advance,

Mika Namir
