Sings Jewish Favorites

CD-Charts > Music > Jewish and Yiddish Music
by: Connie Francis

Release Date April 04, 2006
Although the writer of the liner notes may not be aware of the difference between Yiddish and Hebrew, Connie Francis sings in both languages as well as English on this album (originally a 1961 LP). And she does a good job in all three languages. She does "Tzena, Tzena" in the original Hebrew, "Oyf'n Pripichuk" (a song I remember my father singing when I was a child) in Yiddish, "Hava Nagila" not only in the original Hebrew but with English lyrics (originally popularized by Betty Madigan) as well, and "The Anniversary Song" (originally written in English) in Yiddish. Altogether the usual dozen or so tracks that you would expect from an LP (as this was originally). And all sound very good.

Woody Guthrie's Happy Joyous Hanukkah

CD-Charts > Music > Jewish and Yiddish Music
by: The Klezmatics

Release Date September 05, 2006
I think that Gutherie's "HAPPY JOYOUS HANUKKAH" CD is great, especially for children. The songs are surely joyous and wonderful to listen to. My only complaint were the addition of 4 pieces ("Gilad and Ziv's Sibra", "Latke Flip-Flop", "Groovy"s Freyekhs", and "Spin Dreydl Spin") that were not written by Gutherie and made no sense for this project.
Still, I would highly recommend this CD>

This CD is awesome! The techno Middle Eastern woven in with Chazzanut and Arabic singing gives this album flavor and sustance, I wish they had another album!

This CD not only changed they way I looked at Shabbat but the way I look at Judaism. It opened my eyes and heart to the beauty of the Jewish tradition as well as new possibilities.

I grew up with these albums in vinyl. It was wonderful to re-discover them again in CD format, and be able to add them to my collection as an adult. Theodore Bikel is a wonderful curator and transmitter of these lively folk songs.

OyBaby(TM) CD

Release Date November 16, 2003
My kids age 17 months to 7 all love the cd. The tunes and melodies are fantastic and they all love to sing along--even the 17 month old. Best yet, my 7 year old daughter lets me turn off Radio Disney to listen to Oy Baby. This is a must buy for every young Jewish child. And parents will love it too.
