Title: An emeser oytser
Review: Henry Sapoznik's notes alone are worth the price of this collection, so the extraordinary sound quality (for recordings from this era) makes it nothing less than a metsie fun a ganef! Just a few of the highlights: Moyshe Oysher's Yiddish scat in "Chassidic in America," the Barry Sisters (performing as the Bagleman Sisters and, I think, the Yiddish Swingtette), and the inimitable Seymour Rechtzeit's "Hopkele," not to mention the nostalgic WBBC Brooklyn patter. Mostly, though, with this CD I've finally understood why Dave Tarras was such a powerful inspiration for the klezmer revivalists of the last few decades. That man shvingt!
