For other variations of "oyb nisht keyn emine" see Ginsburg-Marek no.
26, and in Katcherginski's collection of ghetto songs, there is a
version that was sung in the Warsaw ghetto. I believe the informant
was the Montreal Yiddish poet Yehude Elberg who died last year. There
is a recording on an LP of this Warsaw version by a cantor whose name
is Asher Hazinovitch (my spelling is surely wrong, I apologize).
Notice that it is sung much slower than the Hasidic version which was
released on the recording "Zmires yisrol".. - itzik gottesman
