Re: Yiddish Theater

[wiener <wiener...>]

I just looked quickly through some of my recordings and came across:

The Best of Yiddish Vaudeville, Volume 1 on Leisure Time (CD)
    Is there a Volume 2?
Masterworks of the Yiddish Theatre, Volume 1 on GRC (LP)
    Is there a Volume 2?
Variety Yiddish Theater on Banner (LP)

I'd appreciate comments on these and others as representative
collections.

Thanks,
Bob
