No, I don't have a smartphone. He was my Menahel in Mesivta. You just reminded me

[Zalc]

Trivia question, inspired by Baruch Levine's album:

In the original version of "Dear Nikolai", off JEP vol. 1, the "letter" begins with a date. What is the date?

יום ד, כ"ז סיון תשל"ז, New York.

"there are three other hidden Abie Rotenberg songs (sung by Abie and Rabbi Label Sharfman prior to their Dveykus collaborations) that, if rereleased now, would become instant classics."
Anyone know which songs these are?

No, but as an Abie superfan, I would love to know.

Can't believe he wrote that and just left us hanging. He wrote his name though - perhaps someone from Far Rockaway knows him?


I do know that Abie was in Chofetz Chaim around the same time as the Rabbis' Sons; but I'm pretty sure he didn't collaborate on those albums. Kol Salonika didn't feature Label Sharfman.

As per this article, this seems to not be true. But, articles are articles, and could be fake news...

There's a new song out tonight composed by Shalsheles's Yitzchok Rosenthal and sung by Shea Berko and child soloist Yossi Lax. On my first listen, I'm really enjoying it. I love Shalsheles stuff, and to hear it sung chassidish is really interesting.

Random fact, many years ago I created an Abie interview, in which I asked him questions and I put song segments from him as the answers.

I'm wondering if he meant Rabbi Boruch Chait and was referring to Kol Salonika. Got confused between 2 Rabbis' Sons
