Way back when in the middle to late 1960's, some of the greatest Jewish Music was composed to the Jewish Prayers, Psalms and especially "Hallel." I'm not referring to Rabbli Shlomo Carlebach. I'm talking about "The Rabbis' Sons."
Over the years, my husband has bought all sorts of Jewish Music CD's, but theirs is the one I really want.
Every year at the seder table, when we get up to "Hallel," and every month, on Rosh Chodesh, when my friends and I sing "Hallel" at Tel Shiloh, I do my best to remember their tunes I heard all those decades ago.
Time distorts, and there's no way my memory can be relied on, just like the old LP's up in the attic can no longer be played.
Ahh... I can dream....

Thanks, I didn't see the cd, only the downloads.
