Hi Hankus,
   Could I use this info for a paper I'm writing? If so, how would you like 
me to credit it?

Thanks very much,
Elie Rosenblatt

 Some people in the older generation in Philadelphia attributed to the tune 
to 
 Meyer Swerdlow (who probably taught Portnoy trumpet!), but it's likely that 
 he compiled it from Rumanian sources. >>
