Please don't send attachments over and over again. One blurb with the URL listings would be quite enough. How many times do people have to be told not to send attachments???

> Proposed to your attention The Anthology of Jewish Music "Yiddish Mamma" is the unique encyclopedia of the most popular folk and author's Jewish melodies and songs in Yiddish recorded in the first half of the 20th century. You will hear the voices of the well-known variety performers as well as the actors and actresses of theatre and cinema, cantors and Klezmers, that have already become legendary. These over 10 hours original sounding of this music are not only brief excursus into the history but also an attempt at retention and revival of the richest heritage of Jewish culture in Russia, Western Europe and America.

> In tsarist Russia and after the October revolution of 1917, few Jewish songs were recorded and their circulation was very limited in spite of the fact that numerous Klezmers groups were very popular at the time.

> The general catalog of all Russian firms of gram-recording on this thematic comprises not more than 120 phonograms.
