Re: Weirdest Yiddish Recordings

Dear Ari:

As Ethan just reminded me  it's : Gefilte Joe and the Fish... I just farmisht the name. I was probably thinking of Country Joe MacDonald and the Fish(Country Joe and the Fish)...who is Jewish by the way.

Same guys,,,BE TRUE TO YOUR SHUL.  I believe the My Baby's Like A Matzoh Ball is on the same album. It was put out by Rhino Records originally, so maybe they now carry it on disc. I don't know if any of these guys are still alive. They were in their 80s and this was about almost 20 years ago. I believe they are out of Miami.
