> Hi.
> I was just watching Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon, produced in
1942, starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. The movie opens with a scene
in a Swiss tavern and off to the side  to my amazement is a man with a
moustache playing the tsimbl. I can't recognize the tune, but it is very
Western sounding.  Anyone know anything about this?
