RE: Chanukah music

[Mordechai Kamel <mkamel...>]

Ari:

I am new to the list, and I am in no way a musician, or even for that matter
very musical, but it is the music that was sung to me in the cradle I love
it as the only vestige left to me of the non religious cultural legacy that
was torn away and stolen from me before I was born.

That by way of introduction, I really love Klezmer Conservatory Band's Oy
Chanukah! which was put out on Rounder records in 1986.

This comes up every year, and every year I swear to myself that I'll
transcribe some responses, get permission to post them, and add them to the
KlezmerShack pages. In the meantime, Chanuka is a month away, and I have
loads of e-mail to sift through, and only my own twisted listings for the
holiday
(http://www.klezmershack.com/articles/davidow/1999_1228_season.html). Of
those, the only one that will really excite kids is the "Oy Vey, Chanuka!"
album. Granted, it's extraordinary, but I'd guess that there are more.

What are the albums that you'll be sharing with your kids, or with friends
this year? Help me compile a list for the klezmershack, or simply share
ideas here, not for posting, as you choose.
