Re: Lena from Palestina

[Robert Cohen <rlcm17...>]

Eddie Cantor recorded a (silly) vocal version in the same year as 
ODJB--maybe a month or two earlier.  I'll follow up with exact data, plus in 
re at least two other versions which were taped for me--I believe one is by 
Bob Crosby.

--Robert Cohen
