ginger

[Itzik Gottesman <itzik...>]

Don't know about the songs "ginger" and I don't know how related this is,
but Shmuel Lehman and Pinkhes Graubard published many Yiddish songs
collected from Polish Jewish prostitutes, pimps and criminals. One such
song can be heard on the recently released "Treasures of Jewish Culture in
Ukraine", recorded in 1929 (by Beregovsky and collegues). The singer, Sima
Guralnic sings "di shtot Beynazeres" [Buenos Aires]. It is a rough field
recording, barely intelligable, but she is a wonderful singer. - Itzik
