Title: Beautiful folk songs
Review: This is a truly amazing album. 24 songs sung in a variety of languages including Spanish, Hebrew, Yiddish, Russian, Portuguese and Italian.Malka Marom, the daughter of a cantor, came to Canada from Israel, and Joso Spralja the son of a fisherman, from the Dalmatian coast. Although they had seven languages between them, the only language they had in common at that time was music, since Joso didn't know English. These songs were all recorded in the mid 60's before they dissolved their musical partnership in 1967.This album is full of beautiful folk songs from the world over. It is also an album that has to be heard and deserves to be heard. Their voices are beautiful as are the songs. Please buy this album, you will not be disappointed. The 12 page booklet contains an interesting essay about Malka and Joso as well as photos.
